Interswitch, one of Africa’s leading technology and payments companies, recently hosted a high-impact edition of its Coded Meetup in Lagos, bringing together senior developers from across Nigeria’s vibrant tech ecosystem. The event, designed to foster collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and meaningful networking, reaffirmed Interswitch’s commitment to nurturing technical excellence and strengthening the country’s developer community.
Held at the company’s Lagos headquarters, the meetup created an exclusive environment where experienced software engineers, architects, and technical leads could engage in deep conversations around innovation, scalability, emerging technologies, and the future of digital infrastructure. From back-end and DevOps specialists to solution architects and product-minded engineers, the room reflected the diversity and depth of talent driving Nigeria’s fast-growing tech industry.
The event opened with a welcome address by Interswitch’s engineering leadership, who highlighted the importance of continuous learning and community engagement. They emphasized that while technology evolves rapidly, strong developer communities remain the backbone of sustainable innovation. By hosting platforms like Coded Meetup, Interswitch aims to bridge knowledge gaps, elevate industry standards, and create spaces where experts can exchange practical insights beyond online conversations.
Key sessions featured technical deep dives into modern payment infrastructure, engineering for resilience, security best practices, AI-powered development workflows, and building for scale in high-demand environments. These discussions were led by Interswitch engineers and invited industry experts, offering participants firsthand exposure to real-world engineering challenges and solutions.
Beyond the technical sessions, the meetup also encouraged organic networking. Senior developers connected over shared experiences, explored potential collaborations, and discussed how to collectively push the boundaries of local innovation. For many attendees, it was a refreshing opportunity to engage offline, away from the pressures of daily sprint cycles and product deadlines.
The success of the Coded Meetup underscores Interswitch’s ongoing dedication to empowering developers and strengthening the technology landscape in Nigeria. As the company continues to build mission-critical infrastructure for Africa, its investment in community-driven initiatives signals a long-term vision: a future where engineers are not only building powerful systems but also building each other.
With more editions planned, the Coded Meetup is set to become a cornerstone gathering for senior developers seeking growth, community, and meaningful conversation.
