Job Overview

This is not a conventional software job.

You will join a mature engineering-focused software team building high-performance applications for estimators, quantity surveyors, civil engineers, and planners - software that has been successfully used worldwide for over 30 years and helps shape national infrastructure and city skylines.

The work is low-level, performance-driven Win32 development, using our own editor and compiler to produce fast, efficient code. There are no sprints, stand-ups, or busywork - just real engineering, direct collaboration, and responsibility.

If you enjoy deep technical challenges, learning how systems truly work, and building software that lasts, this role in Cape Town, South Africa may be for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Learn and work effectively within the Candy development environment
  • Take ownership of existing codebases and transition responsibilities from senior developers
  • Design, implement, and maintain high-performance Win32 applications
  • Identify software issues, troubleshoot problems, and deliver effective fixes
  • Contribute ideas to continuously improve product quality, performance, and usability
  • Apply prior technical knowledge to solve complex engineering-focused problems

Qualifications and Experience

  • Proven experience in Win32 API development and Win32 graphics programming
  • Background in engineering software development or technical, performance-driven systems
  • Experience with database development and data-driven applications
  • Strong analytical skills, curiosity, and a willingness to learn low-level systems
  • High level of self-motivation, diligence, and problem-solving ability
  • Ability to collaborate closely with other developers in a focused engineering team

Benefits

  • A structured start: individual onboarding, organized networking
  • Goodies like: Company Share Ownership Program (WESOP) & After Work Activities
  • A modern working model: trust-based working hours, flexible working hours, possibility of hybrid working
  • Career development/ prospects: Team or role-based development/ training, individual development/ training, national and international career prospects within the RIB Group or Schneider Electric

RIB may require all successful applicants to undergo and pass a comprehensive background check before they start employment. Background checks will be conducted in accordance with local laws and may, subject to those laws, include proof of educational attainment, employment history verification, proof of work authorization, criminal records, identity verification, credit check. Certain positions dealing with sensitive and/or third party personal data may involve additional background check criteria.

RIB is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We are committed to being an exemplary employer with an inclusive culture, developing a workplace environment where all our employees are treated with dignity and respect. We value diversity and the expertise that people from different backgrounds bring to our business.
