SDE 2 - Backend (Go)

SDE 2 - Backend (Go)Location: Pune, India (On-site)Type: Full-TimeExperience: 3–4 yearsAbout Dispatch Network Dispatch Network is building Last Mile 2.0 — redefining how urban logistics operates in India. We’re designing the new infrastructure for how goods move: faster, smarter, and more sustainable.Our systems power real-time movement of thousands of riders across cities — connecting orders, people, and places with near-zero latency. We’re now moving from proven pilots to national scale.As an SDE 2 (Backend – Go), you’ll own and scale the distributed systems that make this possible. You’ll design and implement highly concurrent services, real-time event pipelines, and data-driven orchestration logic that keeps India’s cities moving.What You’ll Do:Core Systems Development● Design and implement backend services in Go for gig orchestration, rider routing, and real-time order tracking.● Architect WebSocket-based communication layers capable of handling thousands of concurrent app connections per cluster.● Build and optimize Kafka-based asynchronous systems for events, telemetry, and delivery workflows.● Design APIs (REST/gRPC) and contribute to our orchestration engine and ATLAS decision core.System Design & Scalability● Own feature design from architecture to production deployment.● Develop fault-tolerant systems that can handle high concurrency and network volatility.● Optimize Redis usage for caching, Pub/Sub, and geo-queries.● Work with Postgres and H3 for geo-hash-based zone logic and order mapping.Infrastructure & Delivery ● Contribute to CI/CD, observability, and performance tuning across microservices.● Partner with infra team on AWS (ECS, RDS, Redis, Kafka, Terraform).● Drive code reviews and uphold engineering quality.Collaboration & Leadership● Work closely with product, AI, and mobility teams to ship data-informed features.● Mentor SDE1s and review code for reliability and maintainability.● Contribute to internal engineering practices, documentation, and standards.What We’re Looking For:● 4–7 years of backend development experience, with at least 2+ years in Go.● Strong grasp of concurrency, synchronization, and async I/O.● Experience with WebSocket servers, Kafka, Redis, and event-driven architectures.● Solid understanding of distributed systems, service-to-service communication, and API versioning.● Familiar with containerized environments (Docker, AWS ECS/Fargate).● Strong debugging, performance profiling, and system observability skills.Bonus: ● Experience with OSRM, H3, Redis Geo, or last-mile logistics systems.● Contributions to open-source or production-grade Go frameworks.● Exposure to event-sourcing or CQRS architectures.Why Join Us:● Impact: Your code will power real-world movement across India.● Ownership: Founding-level responsibility over system design and reliability.● Growth: Deep technical exposure across concurrency, mobility, and AI-driven logistics.● Culture: Design × Tech × Empathy — you’ll help define how we build.
