Senior Golang Engineer at Lemon.io - Remote Global

Highly nomad-friendly role — Lemon.io explicitly serves developers across 75+ countries and accepts applicants from the EU, US, Canada, UK, Australia, and Singapore, covering the most popular digital nomad hubs worldwide.

Schedule flexibility: The posting emphasizes strong self-organizational skills and the ability to work remotely without supervision, which are strong signals of an async-first or largely async culture. However, "client calls" are mentioned, so some timezone overlap with US or EU clients will likely be required — expect to keep at least a few hours available during US Eastern or Central European business hours.

Visa considerations: Because this is a contractor/marketplace arrangement (not direct hire), you're typically engaged as a freelancer. This suits:

• Portugal: Digital Nomad Visa (D8) — ideal for EU-based billing;
  Lisbon and Porto have strong tech communities. Monthly cost of living ~$2,000–$3,000.
• Colombia (Medellín): Digital Nomad Visa available;
  Medellín offers ~$1,500–$2,500/month living costs with a thriving coworking scene.

No equipment stipend or coworking allowance is mentioned — budget for your own setup. As a contractor through Lemon.io, you are responsible for your own benefits and tax compliance in your country of residence.
