Experience Required: 4 Years
Salary Range: R55 000 - R95 000 per month (experiencedependent)
Were partnering with a leading global technology business to find a Software Developer who is ready to step into a highperformance engineering environment where quality collaboration and continuous improvement are nonnegotiable.
This role is designed for a developer who understands that great software isnt just written its crafted. Youll be working across multiple integrated components contributing to the full development lifecycle and ensuring every line of code delivers both functional value and technical integrity.
What Youll Be Doing
Youll be responsible for designing building and maintaining software components that meet welldefined business and technical requirements. This includes:
Technical Design & Architecture
- Analysing requirements and translating them into clear logical welldocumented solutions
- Producing design documentation aligned with team standards
- Considering performance security and maintainability from the outset
Software Engineering & Quality Practices
- Writing testable reliable code across multiple integration points
- Ensuring feature coverage and quality through functional and basic nonfunctional tests
- Participating actively in code reviews and championing clean coding standards
- Keeping documentation up to date and meaningful
- Identifying inefficiencies and automating manual processes wherever possible
Build Release & DevOps Practices
- Developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using YAML-based configurations
- Working confidently with containers to support development and deployment
- Ensuring quality gates reports and alerts are embedded throughout the pipeline
- Troubleshooting and resolving pipeline or deployment issues
Planning & Delivery
- Estimating your own work accurately and understanding the associated testing and review overhead
- Proactively communicating progress risks and blockers
- Troubleshooting issues to identify and resolve root causes
- Collaborating closely with SDETs and other technical stakeholders to deliver highquality releases
What You Bring
Were looking for someone with a strong technical foundation and the drive to grow:
- 4 years of handson software development experience
- Advanced proficiency (latest LTS) cloud environments (onprem and cloud) CI/CD and modern DevOps tooling (e.g. Terraform Docker Kubernetes)
- Proven track record delivering across APIs microservices and integrated systems
- Strong understanding of compliance security and regulatory requirements
- Experience developing integrated components with solid test coverage
- Experience leading small/medium projects and mentoring developers
- AI experience (e.g. code generation automated testing optimisation) or a proactive mindset toward adopting AI tools for efficiency
- Working knowledge of modern development standards SDLC and CI/CD pipelines
- Understanding of security practices threat modelling and performance considerations
- Familiarity with containers and basic infrastructure requirements
- Ability to craft clear designs and troubleshoot effectively
- Strong collaboration skills and a willingness to share knowledge
The Kind of Developer Who Thrives Here
Youre someone who thinks systemically solves problems methodically and delivers with care.
You follow through on commitments.
You collaborate openly.
Youre always looking for ways to improve your code your tools your process your product.
You leave the environment better than you found it.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This isnt a maintenanceonly role. Its handson fullstack engineering across integrated components with huge room for growth. Youll be surrounded by teams who value technical excellence and who expect and support your continued development.
If youre ready to stretch your abilities and contribute to software that is built with purpose wed love to introduce you.
