At DATASCOPE, our customers are more than just users—you are the reason we do what we do. Your challenges and goals fuel every decision we make. We do not just build software; we build partnerships. And at the heart of that partnership is our development team.
With five passionate developers, two detail-driven testers, and one inspiring manager, this small but mighty team lives our values of integrity, passion, and collaboration. Backed by over 20 collective years of development and testing experience in the combined team, every update, feature, and improvement is crafted with care to solve real problems and support your growth.
We are proud to introduce the people behind the product—
Mark Phillips – The Collaborator
Mark guides our development team with calm leadership, fostering communication, growth, and alignment. His steady hand ensures we move forward together—focused, efficient, and working at our full potential
Developers
Mzu Bolilitye – The Mentor
Mzu brings a calm, thoughtful energy to the team. He leads not with volume, but with wisdom and quiet confidence. He writes excellent code, but perhaps more importantly, he lifts others up. He’s the developer you’ll find helping a teammate debug a problem as often as committing rock-solid code.
Charl Viljoen – The Problem-Solver
Decades of experience and a “can-do” attitude make Charl our go-to for complex challenges—he always finds a way. He’s known as our very own MacGyver—not because he’s flashy, but because he always finds a way to get it done and done right.
Jacomi Terblanche – The Communicator
Jacomi handles emergencies with grace and makes complex systems accessible to those who need them. With a gift for making people feel heard and supported, she’s the kind of developer who makes our product—and our customer relationships—stronger every day.
Susan Fairlamb – The Engine
Susan is a quiet powerhouse—focused, consistent, and dependable. She delivers high-quality code at scale, without drama, driving the pipeline forward and adding immense commercial value on a weekly basis.
Loyiso Dlambulo – The Artiste
Loyiso brings creative energy and design precision to the team. His eye for detail elevates our interfaces, reminding us that great software is as much about feel as it is about function.
Testers
Serendon Naicker – Oculus
Serendon is our watchful protector, ensuring our product meets every test. He builds clever automated tools that catch issues long before they reach the customer. Known affectionately as “OCULUS,” Serendon brings clarity, intelligence, and a sharp eye for quality that helps make every release smoother and stronger.
Bernadette Dowling – The Oracle
Bernadette brings calm wisdom and a sense of responsibility to everything she touches. With her background in development, she understands both sides of the product journey. Her thorough testing and sharp attention to detail make sure that what we deliver to customers is not just working—but polished and professional. She’s our final quality gate, and we trust her completely.
Our development team does not just build software—they build the tools that help you run your business better. Each member brings their unique strengths, personalities, and perspectives to the table—and together, they form a high-performing team that embodies our values and vision.
To our customers: thank you. Your feedback, trust, and partnership guide everything we do. We are committed to growing with you, building with you, and ensuring our software evolves as your business evolves.
