Tazeniq — Technology for a Smarter Life

Careers

Build useful technology with Tazeniq Labs.

We start with real Nigerian problems and build technology to answer them. The Tazeniq Labs team is where research, hardware, software, design and manufacturing come together — and we are mapping the expertise needed to make that loop real.

Specialties & careers

Expertise for the Labs team.

Explore the specialties we are building the lab around. These profiles describe areas of expertise, not confirmed vacancies. Contact us about employment or research collaboration.

Embedded Systems Engineer

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Hardware

Design and prototype the firmware and embedded electronics at the heart of Tazeniq-designed products, from smart home devices to connected electronics.

What you will do

  • Prototype firmware on microcontrollers (ARM Cortex-M, ESP32) for connected devices.
  • Bring up new hardware boards and validate sensors, power and radio behaviour.
  • Work with product and field-testing teams to harden designs for Nigerian conditions.

What we look for

  • Strong C and bare-metal/embedded firmware experience.
  • Comfort reading schematics and debugging with oscilloscopes/logic analysers.
  • Experience with RTOS, low-power design or wireless stacks (BLE/Wi-Fi) is a plus.

Hardware Product Engineer

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Hardware

Turn product briefs into working hardware — owning board layout, component selection and engineering validation from prototype toward manufacturing.

What you will do

  • Specify, design and review PCB layouts for new product prototypes.
  • Select components balancing cost, availability and local field reliability.
  • Lead engineering validation, EMC pre-compliance and reliability testing.

What we look for

  • Experience bringing at least one hardware product from prototype to pilot build.
  • Familiarity with power electronics, battery systems or consumer electronics.
  • Disciplined documentation and design-review practice.

Product Research Analyst

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Research

Ground every Labs decision in evidence — translating customer problems and market observation into clear product briefs the engineering team can build against.

What you will do

  • Run customer problem research, interviews and field observation in Nigerian markets.
  • Analyse retail, support and product data to surface real unmet needs.
  • Convert findings into prioritised product briefs and requirements.

What we look for

  • Background in product, UX or market research with a strong analytical edge.
  • Comfort conducting primary research in real market settings.
  • Clear, structured written communication.

Field Testing & Quality Engineer

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Testing

Prove that prototypes survive the real world — designing and running field tests that measure performance, reliability and customer experience in Nigerian conditions.

What you will do

  • Design test plans covering power, heat, dust, network and daily-use scenarios.
  • Run field pilots, collect structured feedback and report failures clearly.
  • Drive fixes back into engineering with prioritised, evidence-based findings.

What we look for

  • Experience in hardware QA, field testing or reliability engineering.
  • Methodical, data-driven and comfortable working outside the lab.
  • Ability to communicate trade-offs to engineers and product teams.

Industrial / Product Designer

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Design

Shape how Tazeniq-designed products look, feel and function — from concept sketches to production-ready design that is practical to manufacture and durable in local use.

What you will do

  • Translate product briefs into industrial design concepts and prototypes.
  • Own CAD, materials selection and design-for-manufacturing with production partners.
  • Collaborate with engineering on form, fit, thermal and assembly constraints.

What we look for

  • Portfolio of physical product design from concept to production.
  • Strong CAD and design-for-manufacturing fundamentals.
  • Sensitivity to local aesthetics, materials and real-world durability.

Manufacturing & Supply Lead

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Operations

Bridge Tazeniq design and global production — managing manufacturing partners, quality expectations and the supply chain that brings prototypes to market.

What you will do

  • Manage relationships with manufacturing partners and oversee production runs.
  • Set quality acceptance criteria and run outgoing quality control.
  • Coordinate components, lead times and logistics for pilot and production builds.

What we look for

  • Experience sourcing or managing electronics manufacturing, ideally in Asia or locally.
  • Solid grasp of QC, BOM management and production scheduling.
  • Clear communication across time zones and cultures.

Software Engineer, Connected Devices

Specialty profile

Tazeniq Labs — Software

Build the apps, cloud services and device integrations that make Tazeniq products usable — pairing with embedded engineers to ship connected experiences.

What you will do

  • Design and build mobile apps and cloud services that pair with Tazeniq hardware.
  • Implement device provisioning, telemetry and over-the-air updates.
  • Own performance, security and reliability of the connected experience.

What we look for

  • Experience shipping mobile apps and backend services end-to-end.
  • Comfort with device protocols (MQTT, BLE) and cloud platforms.
  • Security-first thinking for consumer-connected products.
