SUMMARY:
A globally renowned collective of luxury safari lodges and eco-conscious travel experiences across Africa is seeking a technically strong and commercially minded ð§ðððð¡ðððð ð¦ð¢ðð¨ð§ðð¢ð¡ð¦ ðððð to join their team.

POSITION INFO:
This is a hybrid role for a hands-on technologist who can both build and oversee — someone equally comfortable writing SQL and shaping architecture decisions, who can hold vendors and development partners accountable while keeping a fast-moving, multi-property tech landscape coherent and supportable.

Core Criteria:

5+ years in a hands-on technical role such as Technical Lead, Senior Developer, or Solution Analyst
Proven track record building and supporting enterprise systems, integrations, and data solutions
Strong SQL skills, including writing queries and developing stored procedures
Hands-on development experience with APIs, integrations, and reporting tools (e.g. Power BI, SSRS) or modern frameworks
Experience designing system integrations, data flows, and technical dependencies
Comfortable operating across development teams, vendors, and business stakeholders
Clear communicator, able to explain technical trade-offs and risks to non-technical audiences
Advantageous: exposure to architecture, IT governance, or digital transformation; SaaS/CRM/customer-facing platforms; certifications such as Agile, ITIL, or TOGAF

Candidate Responsibilities:

Provide technical oversight across digital products, internal systems, platforms, and upgrades
Contribute hands-on to development, integrations, reporting, data analysis, and troubleshooting
Evaluate solution and vendor proposals for technical fit, security, data integrity, and long-term sustainability
Coordinate systems upgrades, integrations, and technical initiatives, including testing, readiness, documentation, and handover
Brief external developers and vendors on internal systems, data structures, and constraints so they deliver fit-for-purpose solutions
Partner closely with Infrastructure, Systems Operations, and business stakeholders to ensure solutions are supportable and compatible
Flag risks around vendor lock-in, fragmented architecture, weak integrations, or security gaps
Champion standardisation, integration discipline, and cohesive solution architecture across the business
Deliver clear, well-reasoned recommendations on solution risks, trade-offs, and long-term impact
