They were ready to start from somewhere. Their goal was to learn as much as possible in the early days of their career in order to remain competitive in the long term.
Pezesha has an internship program called “Ezesha your skills” targeted mainly to 4th year University students and also graduates who are looking for early stage experience to develop cutting edge skills in their career ladder. We have partnered with some local Universities such as JKUAT to empower young, hungry individuals willing to get their hands dirty and in turn get experience that counts.
When you intern with us, you are not just giving but mostly receiving value that includes but not limited to:
Weekly mentorship from our CEO, senior management and other linkages to experts in the industry
You gain first hand all round experience that sets you apart from the others in the ever competitive market

You’re a product-obsessed software engineer who evaluates all of your work through the lens of user experience, regardless of which layer of the stack you’re working in. You’ve created a number of fully-formed software products that have been released into the wild. You believe that code is a means to an end, not the end itself.
Because the range of projects is diverse, we need a full-stack Python engineer with experience working on a wide variety of products. You’ll work on projects like: improving our natural language date range search, implementing integrations with 3rd party services, or working to improve the responsiveness and reliability of our API. You’ll also work with the entire team in creating new customer-facing features, from idea, through prototype, to release and maintenance.
Technical background
Our backend runs on Python with MySQL, Redis, and Elasticsearch on AWS. You should have experience building scalable and maintainable services with Python.
Our front-end is built with CoffeeScript, SASS and HAML. You should have a deep understanding of HTML, CSS and Javascript.
The glue between our front-end and back-end is HTTP, so you should have a thorough understanding of this part of the stack including: cookies, caching, AJAX, cross-domain sharing, security issues, etc.
We write automated tests for all of our code. You should be passionate about testing since you know it’s the only way to deliver high quality software.
Benefits
People are the most important part of Atec Web Services, and we take care of our own.
Work remotely or from our beautiful Thika office
Unlimited equipment budget
Relocation assistance
Flexible schedule
Generous maternity and paternity leave
Unlimited vacation and paid time off
About the team
We are a small design-driven team, focused on impeccable user experience. Simplicity, quality, and care inform our decisions and processes. We believe in a collaborative, feedback-rich design process, and feel that great experiences can only come from teams who care deeply. This is the company we’ve always wanted to exist. We share what this all means to us on our blog.
How to apply
If you’re interested, please send a link to your Github account and any products you’ve worked on recently of which you are particularly proud. We prefer great work over resumes.
