Current Vacancies at Raizcorp

Job Description

• Raizcorp is looking for a mid-to-senior full stack software developer to join its growing development team. The role may be remote (within South Africa), although you must be willing to visit Raizcorp's head office from time to time.  

The role

• This is a hands-on full-stack role working across four related applications. You’ll spend time extending and maintaining a large, mature multi-tenant SaaS platform, while also contributing to newer Laravel applications that are modernising legacy systems and introducing newer patterns.
• The work ranges from everyday product development and bug fixing to database changes, integrations, testing, documentation and occasional client-facing UAT support.
• You’ll need to be comfortable understanding an existing system before changing it, while also being able to build new functionality from a PRD or client brief.

What you'll do

• Build and maintain production features across Laravel, Vue 3 and TypeScript applications, working across both backend and frontend code where required.
• Work with Eloquent models, complex relationships, policies, queues, background jobs and database queries, with attention to performance and tenant data isolation.
• Develop new functionality in both an established SaaS platform and newer applications, following existing architectural patterns rather than introducing unnecessary complexity.
• Design and implement database changes, including safe migrations and data operations in PostgreSQL, with occasional work involving legacy SQL Server and Microsoft Access data.
• Write and maintain automated unit, feature and browser tests, and investigate failures as part of normal development rather than treating testing as a separate phase.
• Work through a PR-based development process: clarify requirements from briefs and PRDs, create focused changes, participate in code review and provide appropriate changelog entries.
• Produce practical technical documentation, including build notes, architecture decisions and documentation of non-obvious behaviour, so that important system knowledge does not remain only in code.
• Support client-facing UAT by preparing test scenarios and seeded data, helping explain changes and resolving issues identified during acceptance testing.

What you'll need

• Solid commercial experience developing applications with PHP and Laravel, including Eloquent, queues, authorisation, migrations and automated testing.
• Production experience with Vue 3 and TypeScript, ideally using Inertia.js or a similar server-driven application architecture.
• Good relational database skills, preferably PostgreSQL, including schema design, query optimisation and safe production data changes.
• Experience writing automated tests with Pest or PHPUnit as a normal part of development.
• Comfort working in a large existing codebase: reading and understanding existing behaviour before making changes, and following established patterns.
• Experience with Git and pull-request-based development, including reviewing other developers’ work and responding constructively to review feedback.
• Strong written communication and the ability to discuss requirements and technical issues clearly with non-technical stakeholders.
• A practical approach to development: knowing when to investigate further, when to ask questions and when a smaller change is safer than a large refactor.

Nice to have

• Filament v3/v4 and Livewire.
• Multi-tenant SaaS architecture and tenant-aware queues/caching.
• Tailwind CSS v4, PrimeVue, SurveyJS, CKEditor, AG Grid or similar rich frontend components.
• Domain-Driven Design and state-machine based domain models; ability to read F# is useful but not required.
• Legacy data migration, particularly SQL Server / Microsoft Access to PostgreSQL.
• LLM/AI feature integration, including tool-calling agents and prompt design.
• Laravel Herd, Laravel Cloud, Laravel Forge and GitHub Actions.
• Firebase Authentication, AWS S3, Redis and Laravel Horizon.
• Experience in business-development, entrepreneurship or ed-tech software.

Our stack

Backend

• PHP 8.3+
• Laravel 12 / Laravel 13
• Eloquent, Policies & Gates
• Filament v3/v4, Livewire
• Redis, Horizon, queues
• Spatie Laravel packages
• Laravel AI SDK / OpenAI PHP client

Frontend

• Vue 3, Composition API

Job Description

Business Development Executive

Johannesburg | Full-time | Office-based

• This isn’t your typical sales role. It’s an opportunity to build real wealth, grow your influence, and make a tangible impact on the South African economy.
• At Raizcorp, we’re not focused on pushing products. We partner with corporates to solve meaningful challenges while helping build the country’s next generation of businesses.
• Every deal you close supports real entrepreneurs.
• Every client you bring in drives measurable change.
• And because clients renew annually, you keep earning from the relationships you build.

Why this role exists

• We’re looking for high-performing business development professionals who are comfortable operating at a C-suite level, navigating complex environments, and closing high-value, solution-driven deals.
• This is strategic, consultative B2B sales—not transactional selling.
• If you’re a natural hunter, a strong closer, and someone who thrives in a performance-driven environment, this role offers a platform to grow both your income and your career in a meaningful way.

Building a long-term client base

• Strengthening relationships, driving renewals, and identifying upsell opportunities—earning ongoing commission.

Representing Raizcorp

• Acting as a trusted advisor and brand ambassador in the corporate space.

What makes this role different

Annuity-based commission model

• You don’t just earn once—your income grows as your clients renew year after year.

Work with real impact

• Your success directly contributes to job creation, economic growth, and transformation.

Structured training

• No prior B-BBEE or ESD experience needed—we’ll equip you with the expertise.

True solution selling

• You’re not selling products—you’re delivering strategic outcomes.

A high-performance environment

• Designed for driven, results-focused individuals who want to succeed.

What we’re looking for

This is a selective role, suited to experienced professionals who can perform at a high level.

Non-negotiables:

• Proven experience in B2B / corporate / solution sales (typically 3 - 5+ years)
• A strong track record of closing high-value deals
• Experience working with senior decision-makers
• Solid pipeline management and forecasting skills
• High levels of drive, resilience, and accountability

You’ll do well if:

• You’re a natural hunter with strong closing ability
• You think strategically, not just transactionally
• You understand business and can engage at a commercial level
• You’re confident in a boardroom environment
• You’re motivated by performance-based earnings rather than capped salaries

What you’ll get

• Competitive base salary plus a highly rewarding, annuity-based commission structure
• Ongoing training and development
• Access to Salesforce CRM and full operational support
• Exposure to leading corporate clients
• A career path that grows with your performance

The opportunity
