Founded in 1999, DVT has grown from a Johannesburg-based software developer into a global engineering company with more than 600 staff across South Africa, Kenya, the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands and the UAE. Leadership and technical experts are based in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban alongside teams in key customer regions, and the company works with clients in financial services, healthcare, and retail.
Services span Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, Data & Automation, Cloud Solutions, and Professional Services, covering application development, mobile backend and API work, data engineering pipelines, cloud architecture across AWS, Azure and GCP, DevSecOps enablement, and MLOps deployment for generative AI applications. A distinct offering is the DVT AI Build Team model, structured as AI-augmented delivery teams that still operate under expert oversight rather than running unattended. The approach reflects the company's stated view that AI is changing how software gets designed, built and evolved, and that pairing engineering expertise with AI-native delivery methods speeds up build cycles.
On the delivery side, DVT has built a React Native wrapper connecting Clippd's progressive web app with native mobile device features, an example of the mobile backend and application development work the company takes on for clients needing native-level functionality layered onto existing web products. With more than two decades of engineering history behind it, DVT positions its roadmap-setting work as tailored to each client's sector and technical starting point, drawing on staff spread across multiple time zones to support both remote and on-site development needs.
