Software Engineer
Lijani lights up around animals, and horses have her whole heart. As an equestrian, she's right at home in the saddle, and honestly, any animal is going to get a smile out of her. She's an outdoors soul too, the kind of person who's always up for fresh air, open spaces, and a good adventure. She's got energy for days. Fitness keeps her going, and she genuinely loves anything that gets the heart racing and the good times rolling.But her real magic? People. Lijani has such a love for bringing everyone together, making the group feel like a team and making sure no one's ever left on the sidelines.
At work, she's a natural problem solver who truly loves the challenge of piecing things together, and she's been doing exactly that at Entelect since 2022.
Entelect Hackathons is where coders come to build, compete, and take on unique problems. In 2026 that ran from university cups to a workshop series and beyond - all leading to HackIT, our flagship one-day hackathon, where our community raced to cultivate the most diverse ecosystem on the alien planet Photospheria. Join Lijani and Francois for a fast, fun look at the season and the game behind it: help grow a garden live on stage, watch a hidden world bloom, and meet the champions who split a R70,000 prize pool. Then find out how you become part of Entelect Hackathons in 2027.
