Job Description

Write clean code, review pull requests and fix what breaks at a software development house in Pretoria East. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is Pretoria East-based, with most of your time spent at a software development house. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

The work, day to day

  • Pick up tickets from the sprint board and estimate the work
  • Handle personal data safely, with POPIA rules in mind
  • Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
  • Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards
  • Deploy through a CI/CD pipeline on Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions or GitLab
  • Document how your features work for support and new developers
  • Join daily stand-ups and sprint planning

You'll need

  • Stable internet and a quiet workspace for remote days
  • Commercial experience in at least one of PHP, C#, Java, Python or JavaScript
  • Solid Git habits: branches, pull requests and meaningful commit messages
  • You can explain technical choices to non-technical people
  • Good SQL and understanding of relational databases
  • A computer science or IT qualification, or a portfolio that proves you can build

Nice if you have

  • Knowledge of secure coding and the OWASP Top 10
  • Public GitHub portfolio or published app
  • Docker and Kubernetes experience

What you get

  • Laptop and data allowance
  • Performance bonus
  • Medical aid and retirement fund

Before you hit apply
