Overview

SOFTWARE DEVELOPER – CAD / BIM Systems (C++ / Rust) – join leader in CIVIL DESIGN ENGINEERING – CAPE TOWN, R750K – R850K

This is an excellent opportunity for a SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, with C++ / Rust skills, to join the global leader in Civil Design Engineering. Based in CAPE TOWN, this role offers a salary of R750K – R850K / annum.

THE COMPANY

This company is the global leading integrated design platform for civil engineering professionals. Their software helps engineers design roads, drainage systems, terrain models, and other infrastructure - combining CAD precision with engineering intelligence. With a 35 year track record of success, they develop quality software for the engineering and design industries, including software for civil infrastructure design. Their software bundles together tools to help plan, design, analyse, and produce drawings for roads, drainage systems, terrain modelling, water networks, and earthworks. Think of it like a one-stop toolbox for building infrastructure projects - instead of juggling many disconnected apps, this company provides one integrated system.

THE ROLE

Requires a SOFTWARE DEVELOPER with a strong background in C++ and / or Rust, and an appreciation for how technology shapes civil engineering environments. You’ll work closely with domain experts, civil engineers, and software architects to design, develop, and optimise core systems - from CAD modelling engines to simulation and data visualisation modules. This is a chance to contribute to software that’s literally shaping real-world infrastructure - roads, bridges, drainage systems, and more.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design, develop, and maintain high-performance software modules in C++ and Rust.
• Implement CAD and BIM-related functionality (geometry processing, visualisation, 3D modelling).
• Collaborate with civil engineers to translate complex design logic into robust algorithms.
• Contribute to the evolution of the software architecture and system design.
• Write clean, efficient, well-documented code and participate in code reviews.
• Optimise performance and memory usage for complex 3D environments and large datasets.
• Work cross-functionally with QA, UX / UI, and Product teams to deliver reliable, intuitive tools for end users.
