Job Description

Here your code runs in production, not in a drawer: a logistics software company in Benoni. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll be based at a logistics software company in Benoni. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

What you'll actually do

  • Review teammates' pull requests with useful comments
  • Document how your features work for support and new developers
  • Design database tables and write efficient SQL queries
  • Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
  • Pair with junior developers to unblock them
  • Handle personal data safely, with POPIA rules in mind
  • Build and consume REST or GraphQL APIs

Must-haves

  • Experience writing automated tests
  • Stable internet and a quiet workspace for remote days
  • Good SQL and understanding of relational databases
  • Solid Git habits: branches, pull requests and meaningful commit messages

What you get

  • Laptop and data allowance
  • Hybrid or fully remote work
  • Performance bonus
  • Paid certification exams and learning budget

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Benoni really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: 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. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 10 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Benoni.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • Expect a take-home or live coding test, so practise with a timer in the language you listed.
  • Tidy your public repos before you apply; recruiters and tech leads really do open them.
