At go-e, we have been pursuing the development of our vision with passion and strength from the very beginning. We are moving in an area that is characterized by breakthroughs and growth and that requires a lot of personal responsibility and creative solution finding. On our journey towards the energy transition, the mixture of innovation and security, regional and international, self-realization and professionalism is the ideal fuel for our mutual growth.

The Backend Team is responsible for developing, maintaining, and operating services used to communicate with and processing data from our embedded devices.
Our existing codebase uses a mixture of Go, JavaScript, and TypeScript. The individual services are executed either as bare systemd services directly on Linux servers or deployed as containers either into a Docker runtime or even to a self-hosted Kubernetes cluster, where appropriate.

With your contribution, you will impact how people will charge their cars in the future. Come and join the team that is building the future of innovative charger solutions for e-mobility!
