Golang Engineer at Gemeinschaftsw… · London

Hungry for a challenge?

That’s good, because at Just Eat Takeaway.com (JET) we believe everything is possible, or, as we say, everything is on the table. We are a leading global online food delivery marketplace. Our tech ecosystem connects millions of active customers with hundreds of thousands of connected partners in countries across the globe.

Our mission? To empower every food moment around the world, whether it’s through customer service, coding or couriers.

The Opportunity

The Golang Engineering role plays a critical part in connecting Grocery Partners with the Just Eat Takeaway platform. We are looking for engineers to take our integration platform to the next level whilst maintaining core functionality on which thousands of our partners depend. This is a mid level role with a clear route to senior. You'll be solid on the fundamentals today, keen to grow, and happy to bring something to the team beyond your own delivery

Our Stack

You will work mainly in Golang on event-driven microservices. Day to day that means Kafka, AWS (DynamoDB, S3 in particular), Datadog and Grafana, running on Kubernetes. You don't need all of it on day one. The more of it you've used in production, the faster you'll settle in.

These are some of the key ingredients to the role:

• Build new features in our core language, Golang
• Contribute to architectural decisions and help move the platform forward
• Support product and delivery teams
• Learn from senior engineers, and share what you pick up with the team

What will you bring to the table?

• Some years of backend engineering, including 1+ year of production Go (or 2+ years in another modern backend language, with clear evidence you can pick up Go quickly)
• Solid Go fundamentals: concurrency, error handling and interfaces
• Microservice and event-driven design experience
• You've built and run at least one production service end to end, including monitoring and fixing what breaks
• Experience with Test-Driven Development (TDD)
• Curiosity and ownership
• A great communicator
• AI-assisted development: the team uses tools like Claude Code and Kiro every day. We want engineers who use AI to move faster while keeping their own engineering judgement, and who can explain and defend any code they ship
• Pair programming experience
• Experience with Kubernetes or another container platform would be a plus

At JET, this is on the menu:

Our teams forge connections internally and work with some of the best-known brands on the planet, giving us truly international impact in a dynamic environment.

Fun, fast-paced and supportive, the JET culture is about movement, growth and about celebrating every aspect of our JETers. Thanks to them we stay one step ahead of the competition.
