What makes the role special
ABOUT GROUP-IB:
Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Singapore, Group-IB is a leading creator of cybersecurity
technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime. Combating cybercrime is in the company’s DNA, shaping its technological capabilities to defend businesses, and citizens, and support law enforcement operations.
Group-IB’s Digital Crime Resistance Centers (DCRCs) are located in the Middle East, Europe, Central Asia, and Asia-Pacific to help critically analyze and promptly mitigate regional and country-specific threats. These mission-critical units help Group-IB strengthen its contribution to global cybercrime prevention and continually expand its threat-hunting capabilities.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
At Group-IB, we build high-load backend services that power our products in fraud protection, threat intelligence, and digital risk prevention. Our engineering teams work on complex, data-heavy systems that collect, process, and serve large volumes of data in real time to help customers prevent and investigate cyber incidents.
We don’t believe in siloed responsibilities — developers own their features end-to-end: from clarifying requirements and writing code with tests to deploying it, monitoring performance, and maintaining it in production.
We’re looking for a strong backend engineer who enjoys solving engineering challenges at scale and is ready to take full ownership of their work.
Tasks to solve:
- Designing and implementing new product features and APIs;
- Building integrations with third-party data sources;
- Increasing the share of Golang services;
- Improving performance and scalability (query optimizations, sharding, etc.);
- Integrating services across the Group-IB product ecosystem;
- Developing and maintaining internal platforms used across teams.
This role is perfect for you if:
- 5+ years of professional experience with Golang; other languages is a plus;
- Strong sense of ownership and a product mindset;
- Solid knowledge of SQL and experience with PostgreSQL or similar;
- Comfort working in Linux environments;
- Experience developing production-grade systems and APIs;
- English at upper-intermediate level or higher — we work in an international team and use English in documentation and daily communication.
What else we appreciate in our team:
- Experience with Elasticsearch, Prometheus, Grafana, S3, or Cassandra;
- Experience with Redis or similar in-memory storage;
- Familiarity with message brokers (RabbitMQ, Kafka, NATS);
- Working on high-load or distributed systems;
- Observability skills (metrics, logs, alerts, traces).
OUR WORK ENVIRONMENT & CULTURE:
At Group-IB, we believe that employee happiness is fundamental to success. We foster a supportive, inclusive, and dynamic workplace where every team member is empowered to grow. Whether you’re aiming to deepen your expertise, step into leadership, explore new departments, or take your career abroad, we provide diverse opportunities for professional development.
Our team is made up of specialists from around the world who bring deep international expertise and thrive on solving complex challenges. You’ll be working with cutting-edge technologies recognized globally by Gartner, IDC, and Forrester, and contributing to projects that span across 60 countries alongside 450+ partners and 500+ clients.
We take pride in our multicultural, values-driven culture—where mutual respect, collaboration, and shared goals unite us across borders. And with Group-IB’s continued global growth and financial stability, your career trajectory here can accelerate faster than in most traditional environments.
