Technical Lead (Golang) - Remote
Tabeo Ltd., United Kingdom

Tabeo is building the Shopify for primary care. A vertical SaaS platform that simplifies payments and administrative tasks for local providers including dentists, opticians and vets. Payments refers to cards, subscriptions and finance. Providers benefit from a quicker, easier access to relevant payment options in one unified check out flow. Administrative tasks refer to payroll, time kiosk and marketing support.

Today, over 10,000 dentists across the UK use Tabeo. 100 more join our platform every month. We are the dominant market leader for patient finance and aim to be the same for cards in 12-18 months. Data from cards will allow us to cross-sell new products into existing users.

The business will break even or will become profitable by November and we plan to grow revenues to 10m ARR next year. Tabeo is growing its team from 45 to 50 in the next 6 months. We believe in a remote-first approach to work and equip teams with all perks and tools so they can thrive. We all come together 3x per year for Team Weeks. Last year, we met in Dubai, Lisbon and London. Next, it is Budapest and Reykjavik.

Currently, we are in the process of re-platforming from a containerised platform on Google Cloud and building a new greenfield platform using serverless and event-driven microservices architecture on AWS. You will play a key role in helping to lead the team in designing and delivering this new platform using a Serverless approach.

• You can showcase your role in facilitating the successful growth of fellow engineers by providing coaching and mentoring.

Additionally, the following would be nice-to-haves but not a must:

Flexibility is a must. We work in a fast-paced environment and we are growing very quickly.
