Job Description

Here your code runs in production, not in a drawer: a logistics software company in Tembisa. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

Location: Tembisa, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first.

What you'll actually do

Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards
Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
Deploy through a CI/CD pipeline on Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions or GitLab
Pick up tickets from the sprint board and estimate the work
Handle personal data safely, with POPIA rules in mind
Pair with junior developers to unblock them

Must-haves

Solid Git habits: branches, pull requests and meaningful commit messages
A computer science or IT qualification, or a portfolio that proves you can build
You can explain technical choices to non-technical people
Good SQL and understanding of relational databases
Experience writing automated tests

On offer

Laptop and data allowance
Performance bonus
Hybrid or fully remote work

Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Tembisa really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): link to your GitHub, GitLab or portfolio, degree or diploma certificate plus list of projects with the tech stack you used on each.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

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

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

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.
