OUR LEADERS

The Pioneers of HR Technology

At Ensigio, our team's focus is to build AI-powered HR systems that focus less on CVs and more on real skills.

 

Athi Sigele, 28, is a strategic analyst and founder working at the intersection of technology, finance, and human systems. He studied Social Science, Economics, and International Studies at Rhodes University, building a strong foundation in socio-economic analysis.

He later interned for BRICS at the Far Eastern Federal University in Russia, where he researched sustainable geopolitical solutions and developed a smart city response to COVID-19. These were early indicators of his growing systems-level thinking.

Professionally, Athi built deep expertise in HR technology and regulatory compliance through roles at Sage South Africa and Brilliware, supporting organisations across Africa and the Middle East. His work focused on payroll legislation, HR systems evaluation, and implementation, strengthening his ability to design practical, scalable tech solutions.

To complement this, he completed a Postgraduate qualification in Development Finance at the University of Cape Town (Graduate School of Business), specialising in trade finance, sustainability, and risk in emerging markets.

As CEO and Founder of Ensigio, Athi brings together technology, finance, and strategy to build outcome-driven platforms that solve real workforce and hiring challenges.

FAQ's

We are here

To answer all the questions you have been meaning to ask

How and when was Ensigio started?

Ensigio was started after covid-19 to solve a simple but persistent problem in hiring: too many capable people are overlooked because they don’t fit traditional criteria, while employers struggle to assess real ability before hiring. The idea took shape as we saw graduates and early-career professionals repeatedly blocked by experience requirements, and companies frustrated by CV-driven recruitment that didn’t reflect on-the-job performance.

The platform was developed with a clear focus on practical work simulations, using technology to mirror real job tasks and generate meaningful insight into how people actually work

How is Ensigio different from other places to hire freelancer?

Ensigio is different because we don’t hire based on profiles or promises—we hire based on proof. Instead of CVs and ratings, talent demonstrates their skills through real work simulations, so clients see how someone actually performs before making a decision. It’s a fairer, faster way to find people who can do the job, not just talk about it.

What types of freelancers can I find on Ensigio?

Ensigio connects you with a range of skilled freelancers across business, finance, HR, operations, customer support, and entry-to-mid level tech roles. The focus is on practical, work-ready talent—often graduates or early-career professionals—who have demonstrated their abilities through real job simulations. This means you’re hiring people who can step in, understand the work, and deliver, rather than relying only on CVs or profiles.
