Cape Town, South Africa Electrum Payments Full time
About Electrum

Electrum is an exciting B2B tech company. We partner with some of South Africa’s biggest household names, enabling them to open up their customers’ access to payments and digital goods and services. We love that the projects we work on touch the lives of millions of South Africans every day, making a real difference.

We hire the best of the best and we offer great opportunities for both personal growth and career progression.

Job Summary
  • Leading a team of software engineers and business analysts.
  • Driving the success of our projects.
  • Ensuring high-quality deliverables.
  • Fostering a collaborative and productive team culture.

About the Role

The Electrum team lead role is a dual technical software development role combined with management leadership.

Electrum is a Java house, which means that you'll be contributing towards our projects in Java -- you don't necessarily need to have had experience in Java but you will be required to learn it as part of the role.

Electrum is a highly collaborative environment and our software has a big impact: as a result, even though Electrum doesn't have a remote working policy, our teams have adopted an "Office first" approach to working.

Job Description

Technical Expertise

  • Software development – Leads by example by contributing towards the development of software projects.
  • Solution architecture – Designs and review architectural solutions.

Software Delivery

  • Project management – Working with the Project office, Product teams and Professional Services teams to ensure that projects are defined, prioritised and executed.
  • Use software development methodologies to ensure projects are delivered on time and with high quality.

Team Leadership

  • Team management – Sets clear goals and objectives for team members and monitors their progress.
  • Growing team members – Cultivates and supports the professional and personal growth of every team member, empowering them to advance in their careers.
  • Team commitment and purpose – Creates a shared sense of purpose among the team, cultivating a deep commitment to their work.
  • Organisational savvy – Understands the vision and strategy of Electrum and plays an influential role in ensuring Electrum's goals are achieved.
  • Recruiting – Recognising talent gaps in their teams and actively recruiting to fill them.

Performance Management

  • One-on-ones – Conduct regular one-on-ones with team members and manage their performance and career development.
  • Performance Reviews – Conduct performance evaluations of team members.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Engineering.
  • 2+ years experience leading a software development team.
  • 2+ years experience working as a developer in a software development team.

Benefits

We have created an high-performance culture where you can expect:

  • Career growth - Delivering world-class financial services software products in a fast-paced company is not easy, and it takes an insane amount of effort. But in return for your effort you'll get hands-on experience working on products that are used by millions of people, and a high quality work experience that will accelerate your career faster than anywhere else.
  • Transparency - We openly discuss strategy, finances, salaries and other major decisions.
  • Autonomy - We know you'll be able to make good decisions if you have good information, and we trust you.
  • Shared Vision - You'll be able to shape a vision you can believe in - on how to build the future of financial services.
  • Work-life balance - You know when your brain has switched off for the day and you need to go for a hike or coffee shop with a view, but you also know when your team needs help to bring that strategic deliverable home. At Electrum you will be expected to know when you deserve that time out, and when you need to knuckle down and get the work done.

These are few practical ways we practise the culture we are so proud of:

  • Flexible work hours
  • Onsite gym and shower facilities
  • Daily cooked lunches and a stocked kitchen for the afternoon nibbles
  • Team socialising like hikes, getaways, and dinners
  • A generous leave policy, starting at 20 days per year
  • A recreational area with foosball and table tennis
  • Fatsaks scattered around the office for deep thinking or meditation

If this sounds like a role and place where you can spread your wings, please apply now.

We have created a safe, transparent environment where:

  • We know mistakes happen, and that’s okay. We even have a three-step approach to dealing with them:
  1. Tell everyone about it
  2. Fix the mistake
  3. Tell everyone about the solution
  • You are responsible for your actions – both the successes and the failures
  • We talk openly about salaries and bonuses. At Electrum, we believe it’s evident why some people earn more and others a bit less. It’s like being on a sports team where salaries are widely known.
