Participate in on-call rotations and troubleshoot production issues when they arise.
Conduct code reviews to maintain quality and share knowledge across the team.
Contribute to technical documentation and service runbooks.
Mentor junior engineers and help onboard new team members.
Be open to occasional travel to Fanatics offices and other locations for meetings, events, or team-building activities.
What We’re Looking For

3+ years of experience building and operating highly scalable backend services.
Experience with Go as a primary development language.
Strong understanding of service-oriented architectures, APIs, and system integrations.
Comfortable owning services end-to-end, including reliability, performance, and on-call responsibilities.
Able to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and collaborate effectively across teams.
Familiarity with modern software development practices, including code reviews, CI/CD, and operational ownership.
