Location: Johannesburg/ Cape Town | Type: Full-time

Build End-to-End Systems. Solve Real Problems. Deliver Impact.

  • Work with databases and data systems
  • Collaborate with data scientists and ML engineers to integrate intelligent features
  • Contribute to system design and architecture discussions
  • Debug, optimise, and improve system performance
  • Write clean, scalable, and maintainable code
