## Job description

At Connectly we are building the future of conversational commerce in Latin America with the focus on Whatsapp. Instead of shoppers installing yet another app, we are offering a 360 engagement platform for retailers inside of an app that everyone already have on their phone - Whatsapp.

We are a VC-backed Series B startup with a world-class team hailing from Meta, Google, Uber, and other top Silicon Valley companies. We operate as a hybrid company, with offices in Bogotá and San Francisco, and a remote-first culture everywhere else.

Job summary

- We’re looking for an exceptional Senior Backend Engineer with strong Go (Golang) expertise and experience designing large-scale distributed systems.
- You’ll work across backend and frontend domains, collaborating closely with product, sales, and AI platform teams to design, prototype, and launch powerful conversational experiences for some of Latin America’s largest retailers. This is a role for an independent problem solver who enjoys both deep technical challenges and high-impact product thinking.

Responsibilities include:

- Design, build, and maintain distributed backend systems using Go, AWS, Kafka, Postgres, and DynamoDB.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, designers, and enterprise partners to define user journeys, performance goals, and success metrics.
- Own critical parts of Connectly’s platform infrastructure — from messaging orchestration to data pipelines and API integrations.
- Collaborate closely with product, AI, and frontend teams to deliver scalable, customer-facing features.
- Ensure reliability, observability, and operational excellence across all services.
- Establish, track, and iterate on performance metrics, leveraging data to optimize outcomes and drive measurable business results.
- Work asynchronously with global teams, maintaining strong communication and documentation.
- Plan and manage your workstream, making thoughtful tradeoffs between deadlines, quality, and innovation.
- Mentor teammates, contribute to code reviews, and uphold engineering best practices in a fast-moving, distributed environment.

What will make you excel at this job:

- Exceptional communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Deep attention to detail paired with strong system-level thinking; you can zoom out to strategy and dive deep into code.
- A bias for action and results, with comfort navigating ambiguity and evolving product needs.
- Genuine curiosity and a drive to stay ahead of the rapidly changing AI landscape.
- Balance of product sense and technical rigor; you care as much about user experience as you do about system performance.
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS) and event-driven architectures.
- Solid understanding of system design, concurrency, and data consistency.
- Pragmatic approach to engineering; you balance simplicity, reliability, and speed.

## Requirements

- BS or MS in Computer Science or related technical field.
- 5+ years of experience in hands-on software engineering roles.
- Proven track record building and scaling enterprise systems using Go, AWS, Kafka, Postgres, and/or DynamoDB.
- Experience with Python is a plus.
- Experience with frontend engineering (React, TypeScript, etc.) is a plus.
- Prior experience developing or deploying WhatsApp conversational applications is a strong plus.
- Experience working in fast-paced, customer-centric environments, ideally in a startup or high-growth tech company.
- Based in Europe; remote-first with occasional team offsites.

## Benefits

- Work alongside an exceptional, mission-driven team in a culture that values curiosity, impact, and continuous learning.
- Competitive compensation with equity participation.
- Unlimited time off and flexible working hours.
- Flexible working hours and remote-first culture across the EU.

We are a strong believer in passion, curiosity and willingness to learn on the job. If you are in doubt, we encourage you to apply!

Connectly is an equal opportunity employer. We’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and supportive workplace that is distributed around the world.
