" Gaining software development skills has opened up numerous opportunities for me. I have been able to secure a job in Germany and work on exciting projects, connect with a network of professionals from different part of the world. " -Joshua

Joshua was part of our last concluded coding bootcamp (Cohort 27) in May, 2024.

Can we meet you?
My name is Joshua Taiwo, and I am a Full-stack developer with a passion for creating intuitive and visually appealing web applications.

What were you doing before coming to Moat Academy?
Before joining Moat Academy, I was exploring different aspects of technology and programming on my own after completing a Frontend development program at an institute. While I had some foundational knowledge, I was seeking a structured program to sharpen my skills and gain the confidence to transition into a professional software development career.

What is the name of your current company and role?
I am currently working at CLIQup in Germany as a Frontend Developer. My role involves collaborating with a team to design and develop responsive, scalable, and user-friendly web applications.

What exactly do you want to achieve with the software development skills?
I aim to leverage my software development skills to create solutions that solve real-world problems and improve people's lives. I also hope to contribute to open-source projects and be part of innovative initiatives that push the boundaries of technology. Additionally, my sole aim is to own my company in the technology industry.

Why did you choose Moat Academy for Developers?
I chose Moat Academy because of its recommendation and its reputation for providing hands-on training and practical experience. The curriculum was aligned with industry needs, and after my research and seeing different testimony from their Alumni, I was confident that the academy would equip me with the necessary skills to excel in the tech industry.

How have things changed for you since gaining software development skills?
Gaining software development skills has opened up numerous opportunities for me. I have been able to secure a job in Germany and work on exciting projects, connect with a network of professionals from different part of the world. It has been a transformative experience that has significantly accelerated my career.

What was your biggest fear before coming to Moat Academy and what do you feel about it now?
My biggest fear was whether I could keep up with the pace and complexity of the program, especially when it came to learning backend technology. However, the supportive environment at Moat Academy, combined with the hands-on learning approach, helped me overcome this fear. Looking back, I realize that those challenges were essential for my growth.

How will you describe your experience in Moat Academy?
My experience at Moat Academy was amazing. The program was rigorous, but it provided me with a solid foundation in both frontend and backend development. The instructors were knowledgeable, and the collaborative projects helped me develop the teamwork skills needed in the industry and also helping make really cool friends. Additionally, the supportive environment made me feel confident in my abilities as a developer.

What have you been able to achieve with the training?
With the training from Moat Academy, one of my biggest achievements is that i am being able to utilize the backend technology and i have been able to switch easily to use a different technology without difficulty making me realize that i can actually push beyond my limits and explore new possibilities.

Can you share your experiences with us since you graduated from Moat Academy?
Since graduating, I have been on a remarkable journey. I quickly transitioned into the professional world, applying the skills I learned at Moat Academy to real-world projects. Working in an international environment has been enriching, and I have gained insights into different approaches to software development.

What advice do you have for those coming into Moat Academy?
My advice would be to stay focused and embrace the challenges. Moat Academy offers a fantastic opportunity to learn, but it is up to you to make the most of it. Be open to collaboration because this has also helped me to be freer and more open to people/colleagues, ask questions, and do not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
In five years, I see myself as a lead developer, heading a team of talented engineers. I also see myself as a prominent tech guru, known for bringing amazing and innovative ideas to life. I plan to establish a strong presence in the tech industry, with the ultimate goal of starting my own company and making a lasting impact.

When you are thinking of an accelerating your career path in the Software development Industry, think Moat Academy

On June 29th, 2024 Moat Academy and Moscow Innovation Agency signed a partnership agreement.

The Moscow Agency of Innovations is a development institute responsible for creating a truly favorable environment for the advancement of technology in Moscow; a one-stop shop for Moscow's innovation ecosystem.

Career / Companies Are Looking For Software Developers, Do You Want To Be One? by moatacad: 12:39pm On Jul 14, 2022
As of 2021, the global talent shortage amounted to 40M skilled workers worldwide. By 2030, the global talent shortage is predicted to reach 85.2M workers. Сompanies worldwide risk losing $8.4T in revenue because of the lack of skilled talents.

The US is under the risk of facing an unrealized output of $162B if the country's software developer shortage keeps growing at the same pace.

This is further buttressed with Amazon's coming to Nigeria to recruit software developers interested in relocating to Canada, Ireland and USA which advert went viral last week.

The demand for software developers is global and high; no wonder Moat Academy Cohort 20 members (our last concluded boot camp in April) are getting engaged like hot cakes, to mention just a few:

Abimbola - Software Developer at Profesionals File Inc
Aishat - Web Application Developer at Lotus Beta Analytics
Noah - Software Developer at Buckle
Samuel - Frontend Engineer at TeamApt
Munachi – Backend Developer at CreditWolf

Our approach is not mere academics; it is an apprenticeship model; where we have Master Software Craftsmen train our participants like Apprentices.

Just like any apprenticeship scheme, the duration is shorter than academics and more impactful, so within 12 weeks spent at Moat Academy, our participants attain the proficiency to develop application software on their own.

We moved to our new location, 5 Ogunsiji Close at Allen about four weeks ago and we are already feeling at home!

Allen, a highbrow area in Lagos with a good road network making it easily accessible from different parts of the state has its avenue (Allen Avenue) lined with departmental stores, hotels, commercial banks and telecommunication offices. A next-door neighbor to Alausa, the seat of the Lagos State Secretariat and offices of the Governor and Deputy-Governor of Lagos State.

Programming / Soft Skills For Software Developers By Morgan J Lopes by moatacad: 8:02pm On Mar 10, 2022
Programming abilities alone are not enough to get hired and sustain a lasting career within tech; at times we often undervalue traits that set excellent software engineers apart from the average. Even those who struggle with coding concepts can differentiate themselves by leaning into the skills accessible to everyone.

Last week on Wednesday, March 2nd ; Morgan J Lopes ( the co-author of Code School: Overcome Imposter Syndrome. Kick-Start Your Tech Career. ) was with us at Moat Academy via Zoom to take our Cohort 20 members on Soft Skills for Software Developers.

Morgan co-founded Polar Notion, a software agency in Atlanta, and served as CEO for ten years. He currently serves at the CTO for New Story Charity (YC 15), named Fast Company's World Most Innovative Company four consecutive years

Here is the recording of the session, which will be beneficial for most career starters in software development :

Programming / From A B.A In English To An Msc In Finance...toluwanimi Now Works As A Developer by moatacad: 9:04pm On Feb 02, 2022
“I got a new job in this field within a month of completion … love to code, debug, etc now and I never knew I would.” - Toluwanimi

An interview with our Alumna, Toluwanimi Sola-Adeyemi (Software Developer at CWG)

Moat Academy: Can we meet you?

My name is Toluwanimi Sola-Adeyemi. I am 22 years old and I have a BA in English as well as an MSc in Finance, both from the University of Kentucky.

Moat Academy: What were you doing before coming to Moat Academy?

Before coming to Moat Academy I was completing my Finance degree, and I was quickly realizing it was not the path I wanted to continue on in life.

Moat Academy: What exactly do you want to achieve with the software development skills?

With the software development skills I gained from Moat Academy, I want to build/contribute to building meaningful products. Products that have positive impacts on everyone that use them.

Moat Academy: How have things changed for you since gaining software development skills?

My life has completely changed since I attended Moat Academy. I got a new job in this field within a month of completion and I am discovering a part of myself that I never knew. I love to code, debug, etc now and I never knew I would.

Moat Academy: What was your biggest fear before coming to Moat Academy and what do you feel about it now?

My biggest fear before coming to Moat Academy was that I would not be able to grasp the concepts being taught because I wasn’t good at maths. Most times I would hear CS (Computer Science) students say that you have to be good at maths if not you will not succeed in coding. I have overcome this fear now because even though I’m still not the strongest mathematician, a lot of coding is also logic and using your brain to think about why/how etc, and Moat Academy really helped me with this.

Moat Academy: How will you describe your experience in Moat Academy?

I would describe my experience at Moat Academy as a very enriching and empowering one. The STEM field is one that is so male-dominated and one of our trainers at Moat was a woman, so I was very pleased and encouraged to learn from her every day.

Moat Academy: What have you been able to achieve with the training?

As I mentioned earlier, I received a job offer about a month after graduating from CWG PLC where I am now a Software Developer. Without Moat Academy I would not have felt confident enough to apply or even make it past the technical interviews. I have had to pick up other technologies/languages/frameworks at work but it is made easier with the foundational knowledge I gained from Moat.

Moat Academy: What advice do you have for those coming into Moat Academy?

I would advise anyone coming to Moat Academy to be ready to learn. The training is very hands-on and the morning leadership sessions are also very useful for your life after Moat.

Moat Academy: Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

In 5 years I hope to be a Senior Software Engineer either heading my own company or working for a company that is building things to empower Nigerians (not just payment applications).

Programming / Become An Application Security Engineer Before The End Of 2021 by moatacad: 11:07am On Oct 29, 2021
More than half of the top 10 largest companies in the world (by market capitalization) are data-centric: Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Facebook, Tencent, Alibaba. The world economy is shifting from oil and gas to data-economy.

As so much is being invested to capture and derive more value from data, companies are finding ways to protect these data, one of the ways they do this is through application security, no wonder the demand for Application Security Engineers has sky-rocketed.

A quick search of Application Security Engineer Jobs in United States on LinkedIn shows an alarming 15,000 + job vacancies.

The remote jobs posted within the last 14 days for Application security Engineers on Indeed are over 8,000 vacancies.

An Application Security Engineer ensures that every step of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) follows security best practices. They are also responsible for adhering to secure coding principles and aid in testing the application against security risks/parameters, thus assuring that application security vulnerabilities are mitigated.

Moat Academy gives you an opportunity to become an Application Security Engineer at our next Secure Coding Bootcamp ,by applying on https://securecoding.moatacademy.com

All over the world including Nigeria, companies are actively recruiting Application Security Engineers and there is a serious shortage of these professionals globally.

Programming / Data – The New Global Currency Driving Business Value by moatacad: 11:08am On Oct 13, 2021
We are generating more data each day than the previous. Conservative estimates predict by 2025 that we will store at least five times more data than we have accumulated to date - approximately 44 zettabytes (one zettabyte has 21 zeros!). And less than 10% of this data is structured and coming from many different sources. This is having a significant impact on organizations as while they are capturing more data, they need to unlock the value of that data.

Please join us on Tuesday, October 19, 2021 by 3pm as we welcome Megan Smith Branch , the Chief Operating and Product Officer at CertNexus to discuss the what is needed to thrive in a data-centric world and how to make data available, driving value for the business.

Programming / What's Next After Facebook's Outage? by moatacad: 10:44am On Oct 09, 2021
Facebook and her other social networking sites were down for some hours this week, making data unavailable to their users during the period of outage. Within few hours, Facebook’s stock plunged and Mark Zuckerberg’s personal wealth fell by nearly $7 billion as reported.

We believe it is high time every member of cyber community came together to discuss the value of data and its availability to prepare us for the future ahead.
