Updated to remove reference to hourly rate - as this is a full time role.
 
Why is it important to specify that it is a "women-owned software development firm"?
Lol, you haven't dealt with American companies before, clearly. Its all about upliftment and stating your pronoun upfront and psychological safety. Africa the 3rd world. * sigh *
