Dare to build Africa's future.

We build sovereign infrastructure for governments shaping Africa's digital future — from first principles, under real constraints, at continental scale.

The problems we work on do not have established playbooks.

We are always looking for people who bring deep craft and an appetite for problems that matter. If you are driven by the desire to accomplish something lasting, not just something shipped — we want to hear from you.

Disciplines we are actively building.

08 disciplines · Open roles 2026

  1. 01

    Solutions Architect

    You translate a government's structural problem into a layered architecture specification — before a system is procured, before a vendor is selected. Your deliverable is the blueprint every subsequent implementation must conform to. You think in systems, not features.

    All layers
  2. 02

    Protocol & Standards Engineer

    You write the open specifications that sovereign systems are built on — CRVS protocols, payment rail standards, cross-border interoperability frameworks. Your output is not a codebase. It is the standard the next implementer, in any country, cannot ignore.

    Layers 01 – 04
  3. 03

    Business Analyst

    You bridge ministry stakeholders and technical architects — turning policy intent, legislative mandates, and operational realities into precise requirements before a line of specification is written. You understand that the quality of the architecture depends entirely on the quality of the problem definition.

    All layers
  4. 04

    Data Governance & Compliance Expert

    You translate legal frameworks, inter-agency agreements, and cross-border data treaties into architecture. Data residency enforcement, zero-trust access models, immutable audit trails — encoded as verifiable technical specifications, not policy documents gathering dust on a ministry shelf.

    Layer 04
  5. 05

    AI & Data Scientist

    You build the intelligence layer — the analytics, anomaly detection, and compliance monitoring that give governments continuous visibility over the infrastructure they run. You work with sovereign data at a scale and sensitivity that demands rigour over speed, and institutional trust over iteration.

    Layer 05
  6. 06

    Implementation Engineer

    You build to the reference architecture — executing deployments with enough understanding of the specification to uphold it under real-world constraint. You do not drift from the standard. Every system you ship becomes a proof point that the architecture works, and a reference for every implementation that follows.

    Layers 01 – 03
  7. 07

    Project Manager

    You hold complex, multi-ministry, multi-jurisdiction engagements together across months and competing institutional priorities. You understand that in sovereign infrastructure work, the process is part of the architecture — how you engage a government shapes what it is capable of operating.

    All layers
  8. 08

    Systems & Interface Designer

    You design the tools through which governments operate sovereign infrastructure — executive dashboards, field registration interfaces, audit consoles. You understand that at state scale, clarity and institutional trust are not aesthetic choices. They are functional requirements that determine whether a system gets used.

No listings. Just a conversation.

We do not recruit through job boards. If your background fits one of the disciplines above — or if you believe you can contribute to the work in a way we have not described — send us a note. Tell us what you have built, what you are trying to build, and why Africa is where you want to do it.

We are a small, focused practice. We read every application personally. Response time is typically within one week.
