03 · Eligibility
Who can apply
Remote, and the listing sets no country limit, though its application asks whether you are US-based or have direct experience of US practice in your field. None of Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, South Africa or Egypt is on micro1's list of countries it cannot hire from.
Open in Africa
Open to applicants in Africa, as far as the listing and micro1's country rules show. micro1 in Africa
Apply from where you live, as yourself. Using a VPN or someone else's identity to get around a country rule breaks these platforms' terms, and it is the quickest way to lose an account and any unpaid earnings.

About this listing
We last confirmed this opening on Nov 1, 2026, and it was posted on Oct 28, 2026. Rates and hours come from the listing unless the note beside the rate says otherwise. Where the listing names no countries, the Africa status is our reading of it and of what is known of micro1's country rules, set out on its profile, and never marks a role more open than they show. The listing itself has the final word.
