Senior Python Developer

DVT is one of the top software development and testing companies on the continent. Our vision is to be South Africa's favourite custom software solutions & services company, with a global footprint. You will have the opportunity to work alongside some of the most established developers in the country with the latest technologies. DVT is committed to continuously training our staff and we are very proud of our culture of learning, from internal speaking and training to sponsoring a variety of technical events from DevConf to GDG. We are looking for experienced Python developers to join our engineering team and help us create dynamic software applications for our clients. In this role, you will be responsible for building a Backend for Frontend (BFF) service to power a new React Native mobile application. You will join a cross-functional team, working alongside frontend, cloud, and test engineers to implement a production-grade Python BFF that bridges mobile clients with enterprise backend services. An initial BFF codebase has been produced by the client's Head of Development using AI and spec-driven development. One of your first tasks will be to assess the quality of that codebase and determine whether to build upon it or establish a fresh foundation. From there, you will be a hands-on contributor as well as a technical leader for the mid-level developer on the team.
