Graduate Software Developer

Sidekwest is a Cape Town–based technology company working with clients across a wide range of industries. Our projects typically run from a few weeks to several months and vary significantly in scope and complexity.

We’re looking for a graduate software developer who is eager to learn, adaptable, and excited to work across different technologies. This role is ideal for a curious problem-solver with exposure to multiple programming languages or frameworks, a strong foundation in software development principles, and a proactive, can-do attitude.

• Development of new features of new and existing (web) applications, e-commerce stores, and websites.
• Participate in code-reviews.
• Collaborate with team-members, clients and stakeholders.

• Degree in Computer Science or similar.

• Be part of an early stage company and learn what works and doesn't.
• Greater ability to shape your role compared to a traditional company.
• Mentoring & regular reviews.

Join Sidekwest as a Graduate Software Developer to innovate and transform ideas into impactful solutions. Collaborate with a dynamic team and drive change in the software development landscape.

We are a technology partner - but more than that, we’re a team of builders and problem solvers. We have lived both the spark of a great idea and the sting of a hard pivot. We've felt what it’s like to ship too soon, align too late, and rebuild from the ground up. Now, we help others do it better — from startups trying to find product-market fit to established businesses looking to automate, digitize, or innovate.
