Job Details

Job Title: Software Engineer - Golang (with C# Migration Exposure)
Location: Dallas, TX (Fully Onsite) (Local Candidates only)
Duration: 6 months (Contact)

Job Summary:
We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Software Engineer with strong Golang expertise to support our ongoing application development efforts while we progressively transition the codebase to C#. This role is critical in ensuring that new features and maintenance tasks continue seamlessly in the current Go-based system, without introducing regression or loss of functionality during the migration process.
Key Responsibilities:

  • Contribute to the enhancement and maintenance of a production application currently written in Go.
  • Develop new features and support bug fixes in the Golang codebase while collaborating with teams migrating code to C#.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including Product, QA, and DevOps to ensure stability and continuity of service.
  • Participate in code reviews, write unit/integration tests, and ensure high-quality delivery in a CI/CD environment.
  • Help identify and bridge gaps or potential issues that may arise from migrating core functionality from Go to C#.
  • Write documentation and provide support during the transition phase to ensure nothing is lost or overlooked in the process.
  • Assist in knowledge transfer and potentially support portions of the migration if needed.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
  • 10+ years of professional experience in Go (Golang) development.
  • Experience with building and maintaining scalable backend services and RESTful APIs.
  • Solid understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with software migration practices, including reverse engineering and feature parity validation.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail especially important during parallel development and migration.
  • Experience with version control tools like Git, and working in an Agile/Scrum environment.
  • Comfortable working with CI/CD pipelines and containerization tools (e.g., Docker).
