Job Description

You'll build and ship features that real users touch every day, for an e-commerce platform in Mokopane. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The work is in Mokopane, Limpopo, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • Handle personal data safely, with POPIA rules in mind
  • Pick up tickets from the sprint board and estimate the work
  • Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
  • Join daily stand-ups and sprint planning
  • Write unit and integration tests before you merge
  • Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards
  • Review teammates' pull requests with useful comments

What you need

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

Nice if you have

  • Public GitHub portfolio or published app
  • Cloud certification on AWS, Azure or Google Cloud

On offer

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