We hope you’ve been holding on to your seats, because it’s finally here. If you weren’t, feel free to hold onto them now.

For the past 3 years, we’ve held the Women In Tech internship, and for this year’s edition, we decided to bring them on the team with a bit of a bang. We kicked off this 3rd edition of the Women in Tech internship with a premium event created to celebrate the new intake of emerging women in tech.

The interns got to meet brilliant all-women technical minds within and outside Moniepoint including Adora Nwodo and Chisom Nwokwu, Software Engineers at Microsoft, and Zulumoke Oyibo, co-founder of Inkblot Productions. 

It’s okay to be jealous, we don’t mind.

This event, themed “Tech Dreams, Activated”, was focused on getting the interns acquitted with the team. We welcomed them, dreammaker-style - having fun while equipping them with all they need to know to spur them on their journey.

We hung out at The House in Victoria Island, Lagos, having insightful conversations,  interactive hands-on activities, and exciting games. It helped foster a shared sense of camaraderie, and a deep understanding of what it means to build a career in tech as a woman.

Each year since 2021, Moniepoint has had 5 women join the team to work on products in real-time, doing impactful work in technology as we create solutions to improve the experiences for over a million businesses in emerging markets. 

Every intern gets to become a full-time dreammaker, and in this way, we ensure that young African women have access to build a career in technology beyond the 6-month long internship.

This year 5 women have been accepted via the internship to join Moniepoint in 4 roles; System Administration, Quality Assurance, Frontend engineering and Product management.

Each of them will receive direct mentorship during the internship. Other perks include; a salary, work tools, and merch. The best part; they get to work with the team on live projects that are impacting millions of businesses in emerging markets, and will get an offer of full-time employment depending on assessment after the internship.

If you’re a woman and are interested in transforming the financial experience for businesses in Africa, we’ve got a spot for you. Visit moniepoint.com/careers
