What are the responsibilities and job description for the Platform Engineer position at TechChain Talent?
About The Role
Were seeking a highly skilled Platform Engineer with deep experience in building systems from the ground up. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex distributed-systems challenges, shaping core infrastructure, and working across both backend engineering and DevOps.
You'll help design and implement scalable platform components, contribute to high-performance backend systems, and support infrastructure that enables rapid iteration and secure, reliable deployments. A strong background in Go (Golang) is essential, along with familiarity in modern cloud-native tooling.
An understanding of EVM-based systems or blockchain fundamentals is a plus, but not required.
