About Qadra
HR software built by people who ran HR here.
Qadra started because the tools available to a growing Lagos company either cost more than the payroll they managed, or assumed a compliance regime from somewhere else entirely. So we built the one we wanted.

What we believe
Three convictions that
shape the product.
01
Capability over administration
HR teams are hired to build organisations, then spend their week on data entry. Every feature we ship has to move time from the second column to the first.
02
AI should show its work
A score with no reasoning is a liability in a hiring decision. Qadra always explains what it concluded and why, and a human always makes the call.
03
Local first, not localised later
PAYE, PENCOM, NHF and NDPR are the default, not a plugin. Patchy networks and shared devices are design constraints, not edge cases. Kenya and Ghana are next.
The team
Small team,
short feedback loop.
Engineering, HR practice and customer success sit in the same room in Lagos. Customers talk to the people who build the thing.
We are hiring across engineering and customer success as we expand into Kenya and Ghana.
