Who We Are
At fiskaly, innovation drives us. We’re reshaping the landscape of fiscal compliance with our cloud-based solutions for electronic receipts and invoices. Our team thrives on diversity and collaboration, committed to creating a supportive environment where everyone's contributions are valued.
The Role
You are a Senior Backend Engineer, but we view you as a System Architect. You will join a high-performing squad responsible for our API-first SaaS solutions. Your job is not just to write lines of code; it is to deliver value. We expect you to use every tool in the modern arsenal—including AI coding assistants and automation—to bypass the repetitive parts of software development.
What You’ll Do
* Design and build resilient, high-performance microservices using Golang, taking full ownership from architecture to deployment (End-to-End)
* Embrace a "Continuous Everything" (GitOps) approach, deploying code multiple times a day with confidence thanks to automated testing and monitoring pipelines
* Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, code generation) to speed up boilerplate creation, unit test writing, and documentation, allowing you to focus on complex business logic
* Design and evolve the unified interface for our services, ensuring our APIs are intuitive, strictly typed, and self-documenting
* Integrate AI and ML capabilities into our platform where it adds value, such as anomaly detection in transaction logs or automated error classification
* Maintain high-quality documentation that supports both internal teams and external developers, using automation to keep it in sync with the code
* Mentor junior developers not just on Go syntax, but on how to be an efficient, tool-augmented engineer in a modern cloud environment
What You Bring
* 5+ years of full-time Backend Development experience, with a strong preference for Golang and a deep understanding of OOP/SOLID principles
* A mastery of Distributed Systems: You understand the fallacies of distributed computing, eventual consistency, and how to build fault‑tolerant architectures
* A "Force‑Multiplier" Mindset: You have experience (or a strong interest) in using AI tools to enhance software quality and velocity. You don't just write code; you architect solutions that generate code
* Practical experience with Docker and Kubernetes. You aren't just an app developer; you know how your code lives in the cluster
* Deep knowledge of RESTful and RPC-based APIs, and you treat API design as a first‑class citizen
* Familiarity with asynchronous message systems (RabbitMQ, Kafka, PubSub) and knowing when to use them versus synchronous calls
* Experience with cloud platforms (GCP preferred) and modern database strategies (relational vs. NoSQL)
* You are a clear communicator who can explain complex abstract concepts to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
What We Offer
* A culture that encourages you to use the latest tech. If an AI tool helps you code 20% faster, we want you to use it
* A supportive environment where you can try new things, fail safely, and learn constantly
* Flexible working hours and a hybrid work arrangement (Office in Vienna/Berlin/Madrid/Milan or Remote)
* Work permit sponsorship for qualified candidates
* A dedicated budget for personal and professional development and regular 1:1 career planning
* Company hardware of your choice (Windows, Linux, or Mac)
* A vibrant, inclusive company culture that values your well‑being and personal growth
