John Ojetunde

John Ojetunde is Head of Engineering at Moniepoint, one of Africa’s largest fintech companies, where he leads teams building payment infrastructure that millions of Nigerians rely on daily. He believes speed and quality aren’t enemies — they both answer to mastery. That conviction shapes how he builds teams, runs systems, and thinks about scale. John writes about engineering leadership and team culture on his Substack, Commits by John, and has spent years mentoring engineers across Africa through the DreamDev program. When he’s not thinking about systems, he’s thinking about the people who run them.
