A Nigerian technology company built to stay ahead.
HOD Technologies is the trading name of Head of Days Limited, a registered Nigerian company delivering bespoke software since 2015. We exist to help African organisations build with the same quality of technology as anywhere in the world, and to keep it running.
Our story
Started with bespoke software. Grew with our clients' ambitions.
Head of Days began by building custom web, mobile and desktop software for businesses that couldn't find what they needed off the shelf. As those clients grew, so did the questions they brought us. Where should our data live? How do we move to the cloud safely? Can AI help? How do we protect ourselves?
Today, HOD brings together senior specialists in software engineering, data and AI, cloud and network security, product design and technology leadership. Our people have built fintech platforms in Lagos, governed cloud estates in Canada, led technology departments in Germany and designed for global technology companies. We bring that experience home to organisations across Nigeria.
We believe industry is Africa's path to impact and prosperity, and that industry runs on technology that works. That belief shapes every project we take on.
Our vision
To be and remain ahead as the leading technology company.
Our focus is people, product and efficiency. Here's what that means when you work with us.
People first
Technology is only worth building if it makes life better for the people who use it, inside your organisation and out.
Honest by default
Realistic estimates, early warnings and straight answers, including “you don't need this”.
Innovation with purpose
We use new technology where it creates real value for clients, never just because it's fashionable.
Always improving
Where we are today isn't where we were yesterday, and it isn't where we'll be tomorrow.
Our team
The people you'll actually work with.
