This is a golden opportunity for a JUNIOR DEVELOPER (0 – 2 years’ experience) to join a global wealth-tech firm who build systems that underpin serious investment and asset management decisions.
This company’s systems handle scale, security, and speed – and they’re looking for a JUNIOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPER who’s ready to learn, grow, and make an impact from day one.
Offering remote work – however you must be living in South Africa – this junior developer role offers a salary of R500K – R650K.
The Company
With a 30 year track record of success, this is one of the world’s most powerful wealth-tech & investment management firms. Alongside their prowess in investment & asset management, their technology systems are used by brokers, traders, financial intermediaries, and global stock markets.
The Role
This isn’t just another grad/junior software developer role where you fix bugs and disappear into a corner. At this firm, you’ll work on live systems that move money, data, and markets – with the guidance of senior developers and solution architects who’ve built systems for some of the most demanding financial environments in the world.
Required Skills
- A degree in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Economics (or similar technical/numerical discipline) is essential.
- Demonstrated coding ability – whether in C#, .NET, C++, Python, or any other strong programming language.
- A genuine passion for technology and problem-solving (show us your GitHub, projects, or research).
- Curiosity about cloud services and modern development practices.
Why This Role Is a Big Deal
- Learn from the best: This senior team has delivered mission-critical systems to blue-chip clients and financial institutions. You’ll get hands-on mentorship, not just a training manual.
- Build things that matter: Your work won’t sit in a drawer. You’ll help build scalable, secure systems that power real financial services used by thousands of people.
- Accelerated career path: We’re not hiring you to stay “junior” for long. Prove yourself, and you’ll grow into a mid-level developer role quickly.
- Work with modern tech: While the firm uses Microsoft technologies (C#, .NET, Azure), they value strong fundamentals more, so if you’ve got a background in C++ or Python, you’ll adapt fast.
- Impact and ownership: You’ll be trusted to take ownership of components, contribute ideas, and see your work in production early.
- Exposure to cutting-edge projects in fintech, asset management, and cloud-based systems is on offer from day 1.
- A culture that rewards curiosity, experimentation, and initiative.
