Careers

Come and work in the kitchens with us.

Tumikia builds the ordering and payment system that Kenyan restaurants, hotels and venues run their service on.

What the work is

Three things that are true of every role here.

You will be in restaurants, not slides.

Everyone here spends time in a working kitchen during service. It is how you learn what the product is actually for, and it applies to engineers too.

Visible work.

What you build or fix this month is in front of diners next month. There is nowhere for work to disappear to.

We hire for the market we are in.

Kenyan payments, Kenyan connectivity, Kenyan kitchens. Experience elsewhere is welcome; assumptions from elsewhere are not.

Open roles

No roles open right now.

Send your details anyway. We keep them and come back when something opens.

The team

Who you would be working with.

Field, support and engineering all spend time in restaurants during service. Nobody here only sees the product on a screen.

Field

In a different restaurant most mornings, setting up menus and training staff on the floor.

Support

On the phone when a screen freezes mid-service, with the fix rather than a ticket number.

Engineering

Building for a five-year-old Android on a weak line, then standing in the kitchen that uses it.

After you apply

What happens next, in order.

01
We read it

Every application, by a person on the team you applied to. Not a filter.

02
A call, about 20 minutes

What you have done, what you want next, and what the role actually involves.

03
One practical task or a day with us

Field roles spend a service in a restaurant. Engineering does a small task in your own time.

04
A decision, either way

You hear from us whether it is yes or no. Nobody is left waiting on silence.

Step 1 of 2
Apply in three fields.

No account, no cover letter. A CV is optional and comes after this.
