For hiring teams

    Hire data scientists in Nigeria

    Data scientists, analytics engineers, ML engineers and data platform leads. We recruit data scientists in Nigeria — concentrated in Lagos, plus remote candidates who want to stay there.

    How it works

    Candidates are vetted before you see them

    Profiles are reviewed by hand. You are not filtering a pile of inbound applications — you are choosing from people who already cleared a bar.

    Salary is on the table from the first message

    Every role publishes a band. No “competitive”, no discovery call to find out the number. That is why the reply rate is 68% and the median time from first message to signed offer is 14 days.

    You reach people who are not applying anywhere

    Most of the strongest candidates are not job hunting. They are reachable, quietly, when the role and the money are right — and each of them takes at most three company approaches a month, so yours is not competing with fifty others.

    Flat per-seat pricing

    No per-hire fee, no contingency percentage, no agency markup on the salary. You pay for seats, not for outcomes you already paid a salary for.

    Questions

    How do you find data scientists in Nigeria?
    Through a standing network rather than a job ad. Candidates join by invitation and are reviewed by hand, so when you open a search in Nigeria you are matching against people already on the board — including people who are not looking and would never answer a recruiter cold.
    What does it cost to hire data scientists in Nigeria?
    A flat per-seat fee. There is no percentage of salary, no per-hire success fee and no contingency markup, so the cost of a senior hire is the same as a junior one.
    How long does a search in Nigeria take?
    Median time from first message to signed offer is 14 days. Roles that publish a real salary band move fastest, because the first conversation is about the work rather than the money.
    Do candidates in Nigeria have to be based in Lagos?
    No. Lagos is where the density is, but the network covers Nigeria generally and includes candidates hiring teams place remotely.
