Posted recently. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Full Stack Developer in Phalaborwa, and we encourage applicants from across Limpopo to consider this opportunity.
The Role
This Full Stack Developer role sits within the it jobs function in Phalaborwa. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across Limpopo.
Day-to-day, the role balances focused delivery with the kind of collaboration that keeps things moving. The successful candidate is trusted to make sensible decisions inside the agreed scope, with line-management support whenever a sounding board is useful.
The role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Phalaborwa also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Inclusive hiring extends through onboarding and into how teams operate every day. Respectful, fair conduct is expected from every team member in Phalaborwa.
Practical steps back the words. Structured EE reporting, transformation initiatives and learnership programmes give real opportunities to candidates from across Limpopo.
A Typical Day
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.
On top of that, the Phalaborwa 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.
Notably, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Limpopo operations throw up the unexpected.

What You’ll Need

- Working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP)
- Understanding of secure development principles aligned with POPIA
- Strong proficiency in Java, C#, Python, JavaScript or TypeScript
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to debug complex systems
