Job Description
Senior Go Backend Engineer
LatamCent
• Own the full delivery flow — sequencing, prioritization, WIP limits, dependency resolution, and the release timeline across mobile, backend, analytics, and QA • Shape the product roadmap by researching feature ideas, weighing effort against impact, and owning a prioritized pipeline of what's next • Translate product goals into actionable plans and pull in the right engineering, data, or growth owner when needed — without becoming the bottleneck • Set priorities and hold a senior, founder-led team to them; bring the standing and judgment to close open decisions • Facilitate sprint planning, backlog grooming, and retrospectives with a focus on shipping — not process for its own sake • Communicate clearly and proactively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including founders • Coordinate external platform partnerships where relevant (App Store, Play Store, third-party integrations)
Job Requirements
- 3–4+ years producing or program-managing shipped consumer mobile apps on both iOS and Android — not one or the other
- Hands-on agile delivery: sprint planning, backlog grooming, WIP discipline, dependency mapping, and release coordination across mobile, backend, analytics, and QA
- Fluent in Jira — you live in it, not just report from it
- Experience shipping products where backend, mobile, and analytics have to reconcile
- Strong product judgment — can run discovery, write specs, and make prioritization calls, not only track them
- The confidence to set priorities, say no when needed, and challenge founders respectfully when it serves the product
- C2 English — direct, daily communication with US-based founders and a distributed team
- Americas time zone required
Benefits
- Unlimited PTO
