Build real hardware. Ship production code. 9coll offers university students and emerging developers hands-on mentorship across connected IoT devices, embedded firmware, and enterprise full-stack platforms.
Whether your passion lies in bare-metal microcontrollers, wireless IoT sensors, or modern cloud web apps, 9coll gives you the tools and mentorship to master your craft.
Design, solder, and program connected IoT hardware. Work with sensor arrays, wireless modules (LoRa, BLE, Cellular, Wi-Fi), and real-time MQTT message brokers.
Engineer mission-critical web applications and APIs using modern TypeScript, Next.js App Router, Go microservices, and PostgreSQL database pooling.
Develop low-level bare-metal firmware, real-time operating systems (FreeRTOS), and memory-safe Rust services for field-deployed microcontrollers.
Most student internships in Rwanda involve coffee runs or toy exercises. At 9coll, you work directly on industrial telemetry sensors, real-time client backends, and public web platforms deployed across East Africa and globally.
We actively recruit top engineering and computing talent from universities in Rwanda and across Africa:
We welcome undergraduate and graduate students in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Information Technology, and related disciplines from universities across Rwanda (University of Rwanda, ALU, CMU-Africa, Kepler, AUCA, etc.), as well as passionate self-taught developers with strong project portfolios.
Our internships are based in Kigali, Rwanda at our hardware R&D tech hub, with flexible hybrid options available depending on your academic schedule and university requirements.
Internship cohorts typically run for 3 to 6 months (aligned with university industrial attachment and semester schedules). Exceptional interns are routinely offered full-time engineering and fellowship roles upon graduation.
Yes, 100%. At 9coll, interns work directly on production-grade client projects and hardware prototypes alongside senior architects. You will write code that gets deployed and build hardware that gets fielded.
