Are you the kind of person who spots a bug before anyone complains, keeps systems smooth under pressure, and turns technical chaos into clean, reliable workflows?
Do you think in databases, debug in your sleep, and love making products stable
and secure?
Ekabel Limited is looking for an IT Intern to support the growth and technical operations of
ekarihub, a next-gen ecosystem connecting agribusiness, wildlife and green
living
Your Role & Impact
This
role goes beyond “IT support.” You’ll help strengthen ekarihub’s platform
stability and reliability, support development and testing workflows, ensure
secure operations, and improve the overall tech environment that powers
ekarihub.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide day-to-day IT support for the ekarihub
mobile and web platform (internal team + user issues)
- Monitor platform performance and uptime and
respond to technical feedback from users
- Support the development team by testing new
features, identifying bugs and documenting issues clearly
- Assist with system maintenance, updates and
performance optimization to keep the platform stable
- Help manage databases, backups, APIs and
integrations to ensure smooth data flow and reliability
- Support cybersecurity and safe operations: user
access control, data protection and basic security practices
- Troubleshoot hardware, software, and network
issues (devices, connectivity, internal tools)
- Assist in setting up devices, networks and
internal IT tools for smooth team operations
- Propose tech improvements, automation ideas and
efficiency solutions to reduce recurring problems and speed up work
Qualifications
You’ll thrive if you have:
- Solid understanding of IT systems (software,
hardware, networks)
- Basic–intermediate coding skills
(PHP/JavaScript/Python/HTML/CSS)
- Familiarity with databases (MySQL/SQL/Firebase
or similar)
- Experience supporting mobile or web platforms is
an added advantage
- Comfort with APIs, integrations, and testing
tools/workflows
- Strong problem-solving mindset with proactive
communication and teamwork
- Diploma/Degree in IT, Computer Science, Software
Engineering (or related)
- Prior internship/projects in tech support or
software development is a plus
- Agribusiness industry knowledge is an advantage
(not required)
Why Join
ekarihub?
Join a
high-impact African tech platform where you’ll work on real-world systems, app
support and development workflows, not just theory. You’ll collaborate closely
with experienced developers and tech leadership, build a portfolio of practical
work (features tested, bugs solved, integrations supported) and grow fast as
ekarihub scales across Kenya and beyond, at the intersection of agriculture,
technology, and green innovation.
