About the Company

Armada is an edge computing startup that provides computing infrastructure to remote areas where connectivity and cloud infrastructure is limited, as well as areas where data needs to be processed locally for real-time analytics and AI at the edge. We’re looking to bring on the most brilliant minds to help further our mission of bridging the digital divide with advanced technology infrastructure that can be rapidly deployed anywhere.

We’re looking for a skilled Go Software Development Engineer (SDE) to join our Core Engineering team. In this role, you’ll help build scalable backend systems that support Armada’s AI infrastructure platform. You’ll work on components that touch scheduling, orchestration, service communication, and large-scale job execution across clusters.

This is an opportunity to contribute to high-impact projects at the intersection of systems engineering, distributed computing, and AI infrastructure.

What You'll Do (Key Responsibilities)

• Build and maintain backend services in Go, focusing on reliability, scalability, and performance.
• Design and implement APIs, microservices, and distributed components that power our core orchestration platform.
• Collaborate with infrastructure and product teams to ship end-to-end features.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and help shape engineering best practices.
• Debug and optimize production systems, with a strong focus on observability and resilience.
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to a culture of high engineering standards.

Required Qualifications

• 2–5 years of experience in backend or systems development.
• Strong proficiency with Go (Golang) in production environments.
• Solid understanding of distributed systems fundamentals—e.g., concurrency, service discovery, messaging, etc.
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, or other container orchestration platforms.
• Familiarity with REST/gRPC APIs and cloud-native development.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a remote, fast-paced environment.
• Bachelor's or higher degree in Computer Science or a related technical field

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working on orchestration, compute scheduling, or ML infrastructure.
• Familiarity with message queues (e.g., NATS, Kafka) and event-driven systems.
• Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Contributions to open-source Go projects or distributed systems tools.

You're a Great Fit if You're

• A go-getter with a growth mindset. You're intellectually curious, have strong business acumen, and actively seek opportunities to build relevant skills and knowledge
• A detail-oriented problem-solver. You can independently gather information, solve problems efficiently, and deliver results with a "get-it-done" attitude
• Thrive in a fast-paced environment. You're energized by an entrepreneurial spirit, capable of working quickly, and excited to contribute to a growing company
• A collaborative team player. You focus on business success and are motivated by team accomplishment vs personal agenda
• Highly organized and results-driven. Strong prioritization skills and a dedicated work ethic are essential for you
