It Software Engineer jobs in Canada

Contract: 12‑Month Fixed Term

Location: Durban

Experience Required: 4+ Years

Salary Range: R55 000 - R95 000 per month (experience‑dependent)

We're partnering with a leading global technology business to find a Software Developer who is ready to step into a high‑performance engineering environment where quality, collaboration, and continuous improvement are non‑negotiable.

This role is designed for a developer who understands that great software isn't just written, it's crafted. You'll be working across multiple integrated components, contributing to the full development lifecycle, and ensuring every line of code delivers both functional value and technical integrity.

You’ll be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining software components that meet well‑defined business and technical requirements. This includes:

• Analysing requirements and translating them into clear, logical, well‑documented solutions
• Producing design documentation aligned with team standards
• Considering performance, security, and maintainability from the outset

• Writing testable, reliable code across multiple integration points
• Ensuring feature coverage and quality through functional and basic non‑functional tests
• Participating actively in code reviews and championing clean coding standards
• Keeping documentation up to date and meaningful
• Identifying inefficiencies and automating manual processes wherever possible

• Developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using YAML-based configurations
• Working confidently with containers to support development and deployment
• Ensuring quality gates, reports, and alerts are embedded throughout the pipeline
• Troubleshooting and resolving pipeline or deployment issues

• Estimating your own work accurately and understanding the associated testing and review overhead
• Proactively communicating progress, risks, and blockers
• Troubleshooting issues to identify and resolve root causes
• Collaborating closely with SDETs and other technical stakeholders to deliver high‑quality releases

We're looking for someone with a strong technical foundation and the drive to grow:

• 4+ years of hands‑on software development experience
• Advanced proficiency in .NET (latest LTS), cloud environments (on‑prem and cloud), CI/CD, and modern DevOps tooling (e.g., Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes)
• Proven track record delivering across APIs, microservices, and integrated systems
• Strong understanding of compliance, security, and regulatory requirements
• Experience developing integrated components with solid test coverage
• Experience leading small/medium projects and mentoring developers
• AI experience (e.g., code generation, automated testing, optimisation) or a proactive mindset toward adopting AI tools for efficiency
• Working knowledge of modern development standards, SDLC, and CI/CD pipelines
• Understanding of security practices, threat modelling, and performance considerations
• Familiarity with containers and basic infrastructure requirements
• Ability to craft clear designs and troubleshoot effectively
• Strong collaboration skills and a willingness to share knowledge

You're someone who thinks systemically, solves problems methodically, and delivers with care.

You follow through on commitments.

You collaborate openly.

You're always looking for ways to improve, your code, your tools, your process, your product.

You leave the environment better than you found it.

This isn't a maintenance‑only role. It's hands‑on, full‑stack engineering across integrated components with huge room for growth. You'll be surrounded by teams who value technical excellence and who expect and support your continued development.

If you're ready to stretch your abilities and contribute to software that is built with purpose, we'd love to introduce you.
