Let me clarify this. The likes of Moniepoint, Cowrywise, and other companies within that niche are heavily fintech-focused systems, especially around payments. Now here’s what people don’t know, and I honestly don’t care if it triggers anyone: you can be a backend engineer and still not be employable in those companies. Why? There’s something called specialization. You’ll hardly see companies like these put out a role and simply say “Backend Engineer.” And even if they do, once you read the description properly, you’ll see things like: “Experience in payment infrastructure/payment gateways required.” Now the real question you should ask yourself is: Do I actually have solid experience in this specific area they need? If the answer is no, then there’s no reason to get emotional about it. You’re simply not employable based on their current needs. Again, there are lots of backend engineers, but only a few with real areas of specialization. Some companies need backend engineers specialized in: - payment infrastructure - streaming systems - distributed systems - security/authentication systems - data engineering & high-scale processing So I guess that’s where I’m coming from. But again, was the Moniepoint CEO right? I’d say he could have broken it down better by saying they’re struggling to find engineers with the exact specialized experience they require.
