Application deadline: April 1, 2024

Payment: US$150 per month

Start date: May 1, 2024

Duration: 6 Months

Location: Nigeria or Kenya (role is remote, but you must reside in Nigeria or Kenya to qualify)

Role type: Part-time (3 days, 24 hours per week)

As an Automation Assistant Trainee, you’ll embark on a comprehensive 6-month training program designed to equip you with the knowledge and expertise needed to master no-code/low-code tools. This program will give you the skills needed to excel as a no-code/low-code expert, a role that is in high demand across various industries.

You’ll be immersed in hands-on projects that provide insights into the world of automation. By the end of this program, you’ll possess a thorough understanding of these tools and a deep sense of readiness to contribute meaningfully to organizations seeking the services of no-code/low-code experts.

Collaborating closely with our Data and Operations team, you’ll have the chance to witness the real-world applications of your training. You’ll work alongside experienced professionals, gaining exposure to technologies and refining your problem-solving capabilities.

 

 

 

 

What you will do

  • Use no-code/low-code automation tools like Airtable, Zapier, and Make (formerly Integromat) to automate and streamline business operations.
  • Collaborate with different teams to understand their specific needs and challenges. You’ll then find creative ways to address these needs.
  • Participate in the constant improvement of processes to become more efficient.
  • Create comprehensive documentation for the automated processes you design. This documentation will serve as a resource for team members to understand and follow these processes.

 

 

 

 

 

Who you are

  • Excellent written and oral communicator: as a remote-first, globally distributed startup, we spend a lot of time communicating in writing and documenting our processes. Thus, clear, structured, and well-organized writing is a must. In addition, strong oral communication skills are essential for effective collaboration within teams and when interacting with colleagues and stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical skills: advanced proficiency in basic computer applications, ability to dissect complex problems, derive meaningful insights, and formulate well-reasoned conclusions.
  • Enthusiastic and fast learner: you are a confident learner who is not afraid to learn new tools and technologies. You’re eager to learn to use no-code tools to automate processes.
  • Organized, operations-savvy, and detail-oriented: you have strong attention to detail and can prioritize and deliver on plans. You can manage multiple projects without sacrificing accuracy and quality.
  • Required qualification: based in one of our target cities in Nigeria or Kenya.

  • Must be a current student in their final two years of study at a post-secondary institution of higher learning (e.g., university, polytechnic) in Nigeria or Kenya.
  • Only students in good academic standing with a cumulative GPA of 2.5/4.0 or 3.0/5.0 and above are eligible to apply. If your cumulative GPA drops below the requirement after a term, you can no longer continue working for Kibo.
