Are you an experienced Java, PHP, C#, C++, Ruby, Python, developer looking to make an exciting change: ditching the monolith and building new Golang microservices?
We are looking for a Senior Back-end Engineer to join our team in Newmarket. You are expected to perform at a high level and make strong contributions to the team in rapidly and efficiently building solutions to our retailers' problems, focussing on iteration, experimentation, and stability. This role will focus on the back-end, but you may get involved in front-end work if you show interest.
You do not need to be an expert in Golang but you must be willing to learn, and you’ll have our full support on this journey.

Do you need additional support during an interview?
At Lightspeed, we acknowledge that we face the unique challenge of engaging with and hiring diverse talent from marginalised communities with different personal or cultural norms. For many candidates from these underrepresented groups, a job interview can be an extra stressful or challenging experience. Taking this nuanced perspective into consideration, Lightspeed is pleased to offer Supported Interviews! This means you’re welcome to bring whānau or a support person along with you during any Lightspeed interview (excluding initial recruiter phone call). This ensures you have the best opportunity to display your full range of strengths.
To all recruitment agencies: Lightspeed does not accept unsolicited agency resumes. If we have not directly engaged your company in writing to supply candidates for a specific vacancy, Lightspeed will not be responsible for any fees related to unsolicited resumes.
