Moniepoint, a Fintech giant, has stated that the company tailors its plans towards developing Engineers who can think outside the box.
Felix Ike, Co-Founder and CTO of Moniepoint, made the statement while announcing the second cohort of the company’s DreamDevs Bootcamp which is set to culminate in a Demo Day celebration on May 26, 2026, at its Ikeja facility.
Ike, while reflecting on what the programme means to the company and the country, said “Engineering excellence is a curated and intentionally built process that requires the right systems, resources, and time. The DreamDevs Bootcamp is our way of taking that responsibility seriously. We designed a programme that does not just teach syntax or frameworks, but develops engineers who can think, solve, and build at the highest level.
“Seeing graduates from our first cohort already thriving within our engineering team tells us we are on the right track, and we are excited to see what this second group brings to Demo Day,” he said.
The event, themed “Training Done! Demo Up!”, will showcase the capstone projects built by participants following nine weeks of intensive, industry-grade software engineering training.
According to the company, the DreamDevs Bootcamp is Moniepoint’s commitment to identifying and developing the brightest engineering talent across Africa.
The nine-week intensive programme is designed to immerse participants in real-world, practical software engineering through a curriculum spanning Java OOP Foundations, Data Structures & Algorithms, Testing, MySQL & JDBC, Spring Boot APIs & System Design, Docker & Messaging Queues, Frontend UI & Cloud Infrastructure, and core Practical Software Engineering Concepts. In recognition of their commitment and effort, cohort participants are paid monthly throughout the duration of the programme.
