Josh Ayokhai

Josh Ayokhai

Josh Ayokhai is a product engineer, co-founder, and CTO building at the intersection of robotics and manufacturing in Africa. Born and raised on the continent, he spent years in the United States working as a software engineer and studying Systems Engineering and Engineering Management at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, while quietly tinkering with hardware on the side. That tinkering never stopped. It became a string of personal projects, technical team leads, and an increasingly clear conviction: the problems he actually wanted to solve were back home, in industry, in maritime, in the physical world.

He returned to Africa to build those solutions. His current venture is a stealth-stage robotics and manufacturing company tackling some of the hardest infrastructure problems on the continent. He is a firm believer that Africa does not need to wait for the world to build the tools it needs, and that the talent to do it already exists here.

When he is not building, he writes about deep tech, engineering, and what it actually takes to build hardware in Africa.
