Technical & Mobile Showcases

Jaco's presentation offered an honest view into how layered and intentional the eFiling architecture is. It is not a system one can claim to understand within a single session — and that point was made without apology.

What became clear early is that the platform's complexity is not incidental. It has been built deliberately over time to support a critical national function. Each architectural decision carries weight. Reliability, scalability, and long-term maintainability were not aspirational — they are operational realities.

From a backend perspective, this presentation served as both an orientation and a calibration. It communicated clearly that surface-level familiarity with tools is not enough. Understanding how systems interconnect — and why — is the foundation of genuine contribution.

For a graduate with a focus on backend development, this is not discouraging. It establishes context. It makes the path more defined, not less. There is a clear direction in which to grow.

The Mobile team session stood out for reasons beyond the technical content itself. It demonstrated that delivery quality and substance can coexist — and that one often amplifies the other.

Lesego's slides were structured with visible intent. The design choices supported understanding rather than performing sophistication. That distinction is worth noting: a well-designed presentation is not about aesthetics — it is about reducing cognitive load and letting the content carry the weight.

It is uncommon to see that level of deliberate engagement in a Q&A format. Most technical presentations handle questions with broad responses. What was observed here was specificity — the kind that builds credibility without drawing attention to itself.

The session effectively communicated what a high standard of engineering communication looks like in practice — not as a performance, but as a natural extension of technical ownership.
