This Full Stack Developer role has been briefed against a clear set of outcomes for Ballito. The successful candidate will work alongside an established team and will be expected to contribute meaningfully to the it jobs pipeline across KwaZulu-Natal.

What Your Day Looks Like
Your day tends to start with a quick standup, where the team shares progress and surfaces blockers. From there, you settle into focused build time, breaking tickets into manageable chunks and pairing with colleagues when something gets thorny. Afternoons mix code reviews, planning discussions and the occasional production incident — everyone pulls together, fixes the issue and feeds the lessons back into the next sprint. By the time you sign off, you’ve shipped value, learned something new, and left clean code behind you.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Ballito.
The Ballito office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.
