Ask HN: Which software companies hire people in Africa for remote work?

6 DanieleProcida 2 8/1/2025, 12:56:43 PM

I want to compile a list of companies that will employ people from Africa to work remotely.

I'm referring to full-time permanent roles offering stability and career progression, rather than piece work, short-term contracts or gig work.

It would be particularly useful to know which companies actually have hired remote African team-members, and don't just offer "globally remote" jobs on paper.

I will add any relevant information to https://www.fanaka.pro.

Define "Africa" because it can really vary. Are you talking about specific countries ? There is a difference between say Nigeria and Sudan.

I don't know, but I want to be employed if anyone's reading this.
