Our people

You belong here

Our inclusive culture celebrates different backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences – creating space for everyone.

Our hubs are designed first and foremost for our community. This is where a lot of the magic happens, homes away from home for connection and ideas.

Our locations

No matter where we are

We operate in a unique hybrid model, with physical hubs across Africa and remote team members working from around the world.

We do things together

Connection is important to us. We put a lot of time and energy into building bonds with our people. It keeps us aligned to our mission and updated on the facts.

ALX Hubs

Crafting the ALX identity and sharing our story with the world in compelling, meaningful ways.

Short for “Thursday Late Discussion”, we have transparent company-wide chats every Thursday for updates on our impact and insights to our teams.

What’s the tea? Never miss a beat with our team newsletters of what’s going on in the company.

Each with their own culture and vibe, these are the pulse of ALX – our homes away from home, shared by learners and staff alike.

Because we are your people

Dozens of nationalities are represented at ALX. We actively recruit from across Africa and the world, ensuring our team reflects the communities we build and serve.

"If you are afraid, do it afraid," says Irene Aragona, Community Manager for our Software Engineering Program. "Mistakes are genuinely welcomed as part of your learning and growth."

Two years ago, the Italian-native wasn't searching for her current role. After discovering ALX through a LinkedIn article, she fell in love with the mission. Now working remotely from Lisbon, she turns ideas into community-building initiatives, spending three months in Rwanda with colleagues and eyeing Nigeria next.

What drives her is simple: "Interacting with learners. Half of my ideas came from daily conversations with them, which means 'my ideas' become 'our ideas'.

"Don't be afraid to hustle," says Tony Camme, Communications Specialist. "Every challenge taught me to find new ways forward."

From leaving his US home at 17 to shaping our unique brand voice in Cape Town, Tony's journey shows how persistence creates possibility. As "the words guy," he connects our transformative mission with diverse markets across Africa, drawing on years of community development work with multiple NGOs.

"Working for a greater cause teaches you to think under pressure," he shares while balancing work with boxing and rock climbing. This purpose-driven approach keeps him grounded even as he helps build Africa's tech future, always with characteristic humour.

"Work should be not just productive, but truly engaging," says Teeran Bhooal, People Experience Lead. "With the right people and mindset, ambitious ideas can become reality."

From her base in sunny Mauritius, Teeran designs experiences that help employees thrive. Her journey began with guiding students at just 18, evolving into a career shaping the entire employee lifecycle, from onboarding to leadership development.

Teeran also led the efforts of our first-ever multi-city All Staff Retreat. "Managing an experience across multiple locations felt like a massive undertaking," she reflects. "But it proved that with coordination, adaptability, and collective effort, we can achieve what seems impossible together".

Working remotely while still feeling deeply connected to my team has been remarkable. Our collaboration transcends physical boundaries – we're united by our mission.
