Go engineer since 2017, shipping backend systems since 2014.
I've built the unglamorous kind — warehouse management, parcel tracking, banking integrations, real-time dashboards over WebSockets, Twilio and Outlook integrations, PDF and spreadsheet generation. Systems that had to stay up and be correct, not systems that had to demo well. I've done it as a founder, as a senior engineer, and as the person who owns a problem end to end rather than a ticket.
For the last two years I've been building AI tooling in Go, because that's where the interesting backend problems moved: an AI coding agent (godex), a browser side-panel assistant (lite-agent), a taint analyser built on Go's SSA package (leakcheck), and an EBNF-based validator for LLM tool calls. I write about Go regularly — measured teardowns of things I built, including the parts that broke.
Looking for a backend or platform team where Go is the default.
Happy to do a trial task. Email me.

Old heads, back in the day, would say if it works don't touch it.My older brother used to tell me just because you can do something does not necessarily mean you should.I'm what you would consider token poor and I'm getting along with my Minimaxes, deepseeks and most recently dots-studio.The point I'm trying to make is that rewriting your codebase in a language no one on your team understands...
