Role Description

You'll work closely with our Head of Development to deliver clean, reliable, and high-performing software used by real clients across South Africa.

Key Responsibilities

  • Integrate AI capabilities into web platforms using OpenAI and other third-party AI APIs
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code
  • Optimize performance across the stack, from queries to UX
  • Troubleshoot and debug issues quickly and effectively
  • Collaborate with product and data teams to design and ship new features
  • Contribute to architectural discussions and process improvements

  • Hands-on experience integrating with AI APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic etc)
  • Experience developing client-facing or B2B web applications
  • Exposure to Agile workflows and modern project management tools (Linear, Jira, or Trello)
  • Demonstrated ability to manage time, own projects, and deliver without heavy supervision

Why Join Tactical Software:

This is your chance to be part of a company working at the forefront of bespoke B2B AI platforms, helping businesses across South Africa take advantage of the AI revolution.

At Tactical, you'll work directly with decision-makers, shaping products that go into production fast — and that clients actually use. You'll be part of a small team that ships real work, not prototypes, and your contributions will have a visible impact.

We're building serious tools for real businesses — no fluff, no "AI hype". Just practical, elegant systems that make people's work easier and smarter.

What you'll enjoy here:

  • Building real AI-driven systems that power live businesses
  • Working with a small, elite team that values autonomy and skill over bureaucracy
  • Exposure to modern development practices and cutting-edge AI integrations
  • The flexibility of a remote-first environment with Cape Town roots
  • The satisfaction of seeing your work directly improve how companies operate
