Cape Town, South Africa G Adventures Full time

About Us

G Adventures is the world’s largest small-group adventure travel company and we’ve been making epic travel memories happen on all seven continents for over 30 years.

Our mission is simple: to change lives through travel. And not just our travelers’ either. Since day one, our tours have been built to establish meaningful relationships with local communities, directly benefiting the people and places we visit at every step of our tours.

With the demand for travel coming back strong, we are set up and excited for this next chapter in our company’s story — and we’d love for you to be a part of it.

Our DNA revolves around building, nurturing, and developing a diverse culture of people and a true sense of belonging, where everyone is encouraged to bring their authentic self to work each and every day. You’ll have the opportunity to grow your career, and yourself, alongside a passionate, talented, and welcoming community that works hard to spread goodness around the world.

If all that sounds like your kind of thing, well, we can’t wait for you to join us.

About Us and the Role:

We've been busy scaling our systems through the downturn in travel, but it’s on the rebound and we’re growing to meet the surging demand. The G Adventures Technology team is on the hunt for an opinionated, curious, authentic, and empathetic full-stack developer. If you fit the bill, please apply

Our developers are excited to work at G Adventures because we love tech, we love travel, and we love changing people's lives. We enjoy working in an open-source environment with the ability to select the right tools for the job. Adventure travel is fun and there are many challenges for curious software engineers, with space to disrupt the industry standard. 

You’ll be joining the Product Systems team within the Technology department at G Adventures. That means writing, debugging, and deploying software for our React and Django based applications. Our React application is a single page app supported exclusively by an API layer, where the Django backend plays a role in a larger API ecosystem.

You’ll work on the tools our Product, Local Operations, Buying, and Marketing teams use to build all aspects of the products sold by G Adventures and its group of businesses. You’ll play a key role in building and maintaining a collection of frontend and backend applications which work in cohesion with our API-driven infrastructure. 

You’ll work in a small and distributed team, where communication, empathy, and support of each other are key to our success as a people-first culture.
 

What You'll be Doing:

Integrate into the team quickly. Deploy often and early

Take ownership of the product, leading the team through business projects and upgrades

Write short specs and prototypes to test new ideas

Write unit tests for the new code that you craft. Improve test coverage, follow development standards and best practices

Ensure your code is designed with maintainability and scalability in mind

Nurture the applications and tools, through working with stakeholders and understanding their needs

Prototype wireframes and new features with a focus on user experience

Work with other software teams to improve system communications and performance

Explore and review new technologies, for improvement opportunities

Participate in design and regular code reviews; helping your colleagues do their best

Desired Skills and Experience:

7+ years of experience working in React

5+ years of experience working in Python is necessary, Django is a plus

Project leadership and mentoring experience

Fundamental HTML & CSS knowledge

Deep familiarity with browser behaviour and tooling. Request/response, DOM, devtools, etc

Comfort navigating the command line, especially with git

Understanding of common application stacks (nginx, node.js, uwsgi, etc.)

Design sensibilities, both in UX and code craftsmanship

PostgreSQL familiarity; digging in when addressing performance issues, can wrangle SQL queries

Working with microservice architectures is a plus

This role is a hybrid role based out of South Africa, where a minimum number of days as set by the region, is required in the Cape Town office.

What do we offer you?

Competitive salary commensurate with the role

Competitive benefits package 

Birthday day off

Vacation time for you to recharge

Enhanced Parental Leave

Learning and growth opportunities
