About OneIOT
OneIOT is a Hyderabad-based, AI-native IoT software company building fully customized platforms rather than template software. Our modular, Lego-style architecture allows us to deliver enterprise-grade solutions in weeks rather than months, across climate monitoring, asset tracking, and smart city systems, for customers across India, USA, and Europe.
As a fast-paced startup, we care more about outcomes than fixed hours — we look for people who take ownership of their work and see it through, rather than clock-watch. We value ownership and autonomy and are looking for a Backend Engineer with a strong interest in building scalable systems using Golang. The role involves designing, developing, and optimizing the APIs and data pipelines that power our IoT and data-driven platforms.

1–2 years of backend development experience
Strong hands-on experience with Golang (concurrency, goroutines, channels)
Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and microservices architecture
Experience with Docker and message queues (Kafka/NATS preferred)
Familiarity with Node.js or TypeScript is a plus
Strong problem-solving mindset and sense of ownership
