Our Story

Refactrd was built to address a clear gap in global hiring: Companies need dependable engineering talent, while Africa continues to produce engineers capable of contributing at a global level — yet accessing this talent remains inefficient and inconsistent.

We created Refactrd to act as a focused hiring partner, ensuring companies engage with engineers who meet global expectations across skill, communication, and professionalism.
