Job Title: Software Development Intern at Flexisaf (Remote, Nigeria)

Not everyone who wants to build a career in software development has had the opportunity to study Computer Science at a university, attend a paid bootcamp, or access the kind of structured technical mentorship that makes the difference between knowing about code and knowing how to use it. Flexisaf has built its internship programme for exactly that gap — and it is open to Nigerians right now, fully remote, with no prior coding experience required.

Flexisaf is a Nigerian technology company with a track record of building digital products across education, enterprise, and government sectors. Their remote internship programme is structured to give participants practical, hands-on experience in software development through a self-study approach guided by real project work. You learn by doing. You build alongside experienced developers. And you walk away with something more valuable than a certificate: actual code you wrote, in products that were used by real people.

What the Internship Covers

The programme places interns on web and mobile application development projects. Depending on the track you join, you will work across frontend or backend technologies, building features, fixing bugs, writing documentation, and contributing to live product development cycles. The self-study approach means you take ownership of your learning — you are not passively consuming lectures. You are reading, experimenting, building, breaking things, fixing them, and growing at a pace that reflects your commitment rather than a fixed curriculum timeline.

Interns collaborate with the broader Flexisaf development team, receive feedback on their code, and participate in team workflows that mirror what professional software development actually looks like inside a Nigerian technology company.

Who Should Apply

This programme is explicitly open to dynamic, creative, and energetic people seeking to gain tech skills in software development. You do not need a Computer Science degree. You do not need years of experience. You need curiosity, the capacity to learn independently, a working device, and internet access. Fresh graduates, NYSC corps members seeking a Place of Primary Assignment, post-NYSC job seekers, and anyone passionate about building a career in software development are all welcome.

Why This Matters for Entry Level Nigerian Techies in September 2026

Nigeria's tech industry is not slowing down. 67% of the first 3MTT cohort of 30,000 graduates secured employment opportunities or experienced career advancement within six months of completing their programme — a signal that employers are actively absorbing trained Nigerian developers. An internship at Flexisaf builds the kind of practical portfolio that training programmes alone cannot replicate. Employers do not just want to see that you studied. They want to see what you built.

Bankable Wisdom Tip: Before your first week in this internship, set up a GitHub account and commit to pushing at least one update to your code every single day — no matter how small. That daily commit habit is one of the most visible signals of seriousness that hiring managers look for when they review a developer's profile. Start the habit before you have something impressive to show. By the time you do, it will already be embedded.
