Portrait of Michael Groenewald

About me

I'm a Django developer based in Durban, South Africa. I build with AI-assisted development, using tools like Claude Code and GPT Codex, and I review and understand what ships.

I run Schweet Web Ethekwini, an ISP and web business, so I'm used to looking after the whole stack: the code, the servers and the network under it.

I'm looking for a salaried, remote developer role where I can keep building and learning.
