Role description
Project Lead – Full Stack Engineer (Full-Time)
Lynnwood, Pretoria | Hybrid | R&D + Client-Facing | Leadership Role
About E-Click (Pty) Ltd
E-Click is a purpose-driven tech company building custom software that powers transformation in agriculture, consulting industries and may others. From regulatory automation and lab integrations to cutting-edge data dashboards and IoT platforms, we turn complex challenges into powerful digital tools that matter. We focus on customizing the migration towards digital efficiency.
We’re growing fast — and we’re looking for a Project Lead Full Stack Developer to scale our development operations and drive our client solutions forward.
What You’ll Be Doing
As the Systems Architect, you’ll be the engine room between technical execution and business growth. You’ll lead an, agile dev team and report directly to the CEO. You'll balance hands-on coding with project planning, budgeting, team mentorship, and client relationship management.
You will play a pivotal role in designing custom systems tailored to clients’ manual and digital needs. Your responsibilities would extend from drafting specification documents, assigning hours to allocated tasks, and overseeing both back-end and front-end teams.
The ideal candidate has strong coding expertise, database structuring knowledge, and project management skills. Together with this, important for success in the role will be a business-oriented mindset – someone able to manage people effectively, oversee multiple projects simultaneously, and drive the development of scalable business functions.
Key Responsibilities
✅ Lead the technical development of scalable web applications (frontend and backend)
✅ Own project planning, sprint structure, and delivery timelines across multiple clients
✅ Be the main point of contact for client communication, updates, and problem-solving
✅ Translate client requirements into technical plans and oversee execution
✅ Guide architectural decisions and tech stack best practices (Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, Azure DevOps, Power BI, etc.)
✅ Actively participate in strategic planning, performance reviews, and KPI evaluations for developers
✅ Ensure high standards in security, performance, documentation, and maintainability
✅ Collaborate with cross-functional teams including data analysts, UX/UI designers, marketers, and QA
Who You Are
We’re looking for a self-driven technical leader with a strong business sense. You care about scalable code as much as about building trust with clients and empowering your team.
Must-Haves
5+ years of hands-on full stack development experience
Proven experience in leading software teams and running multiple projects
Strong knowledge of project management frameworks (Agile/Scrum)
Advanced experience in React.js, Node.js, and relational/non-relational databases
Familiarity with Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Docker, or similar DevOps tooling
Strong interpersonal and communication skills — you're confident facing clients and presenting solutions
Experience with KPI structures and staff reviews
A problem-solving mindset with an eye on long-term scalability
Bonus Points
Experience with Power BI, Firebase, Looker Studio, or IoT integration and AI
Experience in software architecture or scaling SaaS products
What You’ll Get
Competitive salary and performance-based growth path
Direct access to the CEO and involvement in strategic decision-making
Hybrid flexibility and a trust-based work environment
Opportunities to lead innovation, influence roadmap, and mentor top talent
Work on meaningful projects that directly impact industries not only within Southern Africa but internationally as well.
