00Careers

We are not hiring fast.
We are hiring right.

We are a small team working on problems most institutions have not yet recognised as problems. We are looking for people who find that motivating rather than alarming.

01Working Here

What working here actually looks like.

The problems are real.

We build infrastructure for institutions that genuinely lack sovereign AI options. The stakes are not hypothetical. The users are governments, health agencies, and public institutions.

The team is small by design.

We prefer depth over breadth. Everyone holds the full problem in their head and decides accordingly. Specialists welcome; silos rejected.

The standard is high.

We choose our tools for determinism and performance, not fashion. We do not ship what we cannot explain.

Remote works for the right person.

Time-zone coverage and communication discipline matter more than geography for most roles. Some require proximity to Dar es Salaam, and we are upfront about which.

Cultural Disqualifiers

We are direct about who does not thrive here, because misalignment wastes everyone's time.

  • 01People who need a roadmap defined before they can start.
  • 02People for whom "sovereign by design" is a slogan rather than a constraint.
  • 03People who confuse complexity with depth.
  • 04People unwilling to own the consequences of their technical decisions.
  • 05People who need a problem to already be important before they care about it.
03Engineering Culture

Determinism

  • Reproducible by default
  • No silent non-determinism
  • Same input, same output

Sovereignty

  • Runs on the client's hardware
  • No required external calls
  • Data never leaves the perimeter

Rigor

  • Tests as practice, not policy
  • We ship what we can explain
  • Correctness over speed

Memory

  • Decisions are documented
  • Architecture is recorded
  • Lessons compound over time

We choose tools for correctness and performance over familiarity. We write property-based tests as practice, not policy. We document architectural decisions because institutional memory is itself a form of sovereignty. We ship when we are confident, not when the sprint ends.
