Job Description

We are hiring the Forensics Team of the African Startup Ecosystem.

At Startup Graveyard Africa, we document the journeys of failed startups to provide invaluable insights for the next generation. We believe failure isn't the end—it's data. Our mission is to normalise the conversation around failure and build a library of lessons that help future founders win.

You are the core of our operation. You will research and write the post-mortems and case studies that define our platform. You aren't just writing news; you are writing history.

Responsibilities:

  • Research and write deep-dive articles on failed African startups.
  • Handle Sensitive Topics: Approach every story with empathy and objectivity. Remember that behind every failed startup is a founder who took a risk. Our tone is analytical, not critical or mocking.
  • Synthesise complex business data into readable, engaging lessons (e.g., Why (Startup X) ran out of cash).
