Andela

Andela is a global talent network that connects technologists with organisations worldwide, with a particular focus on artificial intelligence. Founded in 2014, the company works across AI-powered talent matching, machine learning, AI model training, AI-native software engineering and remote team engineering. It also provides the human compute layer behind modern AI systems, training models, deploying AI-native engineers and upskilling the teams that build them.

Its core product, Andela Talent Cloud, is an AI-powered platform covering the full global talent lifecycle - sourcing, hiring, managing and paying technical talent from emerging markets in one integrated system. The platform's matching algorithms learn from thousands of data points in the hiring process; the company reports matches up to 70% faster and at 30–50% less cost than traditional hiring, with clients seeing projects delivered 33% faster.
