What we offer

Technological entrepreneurship with a deep commitment to social impact. The opportunity to directly contribute to solving a pressing global inequality problem.
An international and passionate team located in Kenya and Germany, who support and help each other grow to achieve the great goal we set out for.
A financial runway that ensures you have the security and resources you need to excel in your role.
Exciting trips to the partner schools in Kenya and new implementation countries to see your impact firsthand and meet our teachers and learners.
Work-life harmony, flexible hours, vacations, and up to four work-from-home days a week. You know what schedule works best for you.
An open environment where feedback is welcomed, promoting mutual growth and transparency.
Unconventional and unique experiences given the environment that we operate in: low-cost devices, limited connectivity, non-tech-savvy users, and massive scale.
Quarterly one-week hackathons to explore new ideas.
A (seriously) unparalleled equity scheme.
A multicultural work setting. Our working language is English. No German is required.

Familiarity with best design practices for Web and Android app design.
You have designed more complex software such as B2B software platforms or data visualization dashboards.
You are adaptable and able to work with fast iterations.
