We are a small team. Every hire shapes how the company works for years.

The roles below describe the kind of people we keep building toward — field engineers in every region, software and embedded engineers behind the platform, operations and commercial alongside them. Some of these roles are open right now; others open as the work demands. Either way, write to us if you fit.

Every hire shapes how the company works for years.
Why we hire slowly

What we look for

The four things we will not compromise on, in any role.

Do the work

We ship. We service. We answer. The work is the brand.

Tell the truth

To customers, to each other, to ourselves. Bad news travels first.

Build for year three

A solar system that fails in year three is the one nobody saw coming. We design for the long run.

Stay close to the ground

Engineering decisions get made next to the systems they affect. Field comes first.

Roles we hire for

The work, in detail.

Roles open and close as the work demands. If something fits, write to us — even if the role is not currently posted.

What you get

Working here, in practice.

The non-negotiables, regardless of the role you join.

Competitive base + equity

Real ownership in what you help build. Salary benchmarked against the Kenyan tech market.

Full medical, you and family

Inpatient and outpatient cover for you, your spouse, and your kids — from day one.

22 days leave + holidays

Plus all Kenyan public holidays. We mean it when we say take it.

Real equipment

Tools, uniform, laptop, phone — whatever the work needs. We do not penny-pinch on gear.

Learning budget

KSh 60,000 a year to spend on courses, books, EPRA fees, or conferences you choose.

Pension and NSSF

Statutory NSSF plus a supplemental scheme so retirement is not an abstract idea.

How we hire

Four steps, designed to take less of your time than a typical interview process while still giving both of us a real signal.

  1. Step 01

    Send a note

    Tell us who you are, what you do well, and a link to something you have built or run.

  2. Step 02

    A conversation

    Forty-five minutes with the team you would join. We talk about the work, not riddles.

  3. Step 03

    A small project

    A scoped task close to what the role does. Paid. Two to four hours, asynchronous, on your time.

  4. Step 04

    A site visit

    Spend half a day with us in the field or at the office. You decide if we are the people you want to work with.

Don’t see your role? Pitch yourself anyway.

Email careers@precifarm.com with what you do well, what you are looking for, and a link to something you have built or run. We reply to every email within five business days.
