Zindi careers

In emerging markets and in Africa in particular, private and public sector organisations with data-related problems cannot easily find people with the talent to solve these problems. As a result, organisations operate well below their potential and their customers and stakeholders remain under-served.

Zindi hosts an online marketplace that connects organisations with data scientists. Organisations come to Zindi to get AI solutions, find AI talent and maximise the value of their data. Datas scientists come to Zindi to grow their skills, build a project portfolio of real-world problems, and find work, while making a positive impact on society. We enable this through an online platform that hosts real-world challenges, learning, mentorship and job opportunities for data scientists.

Our clients are global tech companies, regional corporates, start-ups, international development agencies and government entities operating in Africa. Our community of data scientists come from industry and academic institutions across Africa and beyond.
