Our Initiatives

We are committed to empowering and creating more opportunities for young engineers in technology across Africa. By growing our tech presence in Africa and becoming known worldwide, we can provide opportunities for young African software engineers to grow, thrive and leave their mark within the global technology industry.

Current Initiatives

She Code Africa
Our recent initiative is partnering with She Code Africa, a non-profit organization whose mission is to build a community that embodies technical growth, networking, mentorship, and visibility amongst women in tech. We have dedicated time and funds to mentoring and ensuring that women partaking in SCA’s Site Reliability Engineering Bootcamp get the support they need to complete the program and eventually get an offer to intern with us.
Deimos Internship Programme
Growing young and aspiring engineers is important to us. Our internship programme provides hands-on experience by encouraging interns to get involved in real-life or simulated projects. Interns are also provided with an opportunity to complete relevant certifications. We support and guide interns throughout their internship to ensure that they have the resources needed to succeed, and hopefully, secure a full-time position at Deimos!
