Job Description

Here your code runs in production, not in a drawer: an e-commerce platform in Randburg. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is Randburg-based, with most of your time spent at an e-commerce platform. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Join daily stand-ups and sprint planning
  • Design database tables and write efficient SQL queries
  • Pick up tickets from the sprint board and estimate the work
  • Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards
  • Pair with junior developers to unblock them
  • Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
  • Build and consume REST or GraphQL APIs

You'll need

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

Nice if you have

  • Experience in regulated sectors such as banking or medical schemes
  • Docker and Kubernetes experience
  • Cloud certification on AWS, Azure or Google Cloud

What's in it for you

  • Performance bonus
  • Paid certification exams and learning budget
  • Hybrid or fully remote work
  • Medical aid and retirement fund

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: degree or diploma certificate, list of projects with the tech stack you used on each plus link to your GitHub, GitLab or portfolio.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.
