• Migrating data like a pro, ensuring it lands clean
• Connecting CRM to other platforms via APIs or middleware
• Troubleshooting like you’ve seen every error message twice
• Owning performance, security, and documentation so the next person doesn’t curse your name

• C#, .NET, JavaScript, SQL Server
• Deep experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM
• Solid grasp of API integrations and complex workflows
• 3+ years in CRM development (not just admin work)
• CRM certifications? Great. Real-world experience? Even better.

• Based in Randburg (Hybrid: min. 3 days onsite per week)
• 6-month contract , high chance of extension
• It’s for someone who’s ready to build—not babysit systems
