-

A 20-minute call about you, what you want to learn, and the role.
-

-

Meet the team

Send a general application
Tell us what you are good at, which team interests you, and attach your CV. Three short steps, about five minutes.
Have these ready
- Your CV as one PDF or Word file, up to 5 MB.
- Links to your work if you have them: LinkedIn, GitHub, a portfolio or a showreel.
- A few lines about you what you are good at and what you want to learn.
Questions first? Read the applicant FAQ below the form.
- Step 1: About you
- Step 2: Your work
- Step 3: A short note
Questions about applying
Something else on your mind? Ask it in your note; we read every application.
-
Do you accept applications when no role is listed?
Yes. Send a general application and say which team interests you. We read every one and contact people when a suitable role opens.
-
What should I include in a general application?
Your CV, the team that interests you (or "not sure yet"), and a few lines on what you are good at and what you want to learn. Links to your work, such as LinkedIn, GitHub, a portfolio or a showreel, help us see it quickly but are optional.
-
What format should my CV be in?
One file in PDF or Word format (.pdf, .doc or .docx), up to 5 MB. PDF keeps your layout exactly as you designed it. Put links to your work in the links step rather than attaching extra files.
-
Do I need to know every tool you list?
No. We hire for character first, then skill. Tell us which tools you already use and which you want to learn.
-
Can students, interns or recent graduates apply?
Yes. Tell us what you have built, even small personal or class projects, and what you want to learn. Any open internship appears under open positions; otherwise send a general application and say you are looking for an internship.
-
Do I need to be in Kampala?
Our office is at Mukwano Courts in Kampala, and some roles need time there. We are remote-friendly when the work allows, and each role listing states its location.
-
Can I apply for more than one role?
Yes. Send a separate application for each role, with a note written for that role. If you are unsure which suits you best, send one general application and mention the roles you have in mind.
-
What is the practical task like?
After the short call, shortlisted candidates get a small, realistic task related to the role. It shows how you think and work. We never ask for unpaid client work.
-
How long until I hear back?
Shortlisted candidates hear from us within two weeks. We keep applications for up to 12 months for future roles.
-
How will you know my application arrived?
After you press send, a confirmation page appears only once your application is saved, and we email you a copy. If the email is not in your inbox within a few minutes, check your spam folder.
-
What do you do with my data?
We use your application only for recruitment, store it in our own content system that only authorised staff can access, and keep it for up to 12 months unless you ask us to delete it sooner.
