Is StackWeaver a compliance company in Nigeria?

Yes. StackWeaver is a Nigeria-native compliance engineering company that helps African fintechs build continuous compliance systems by combining QA execution, evidence generation, and regulatory readiness — not just documentation.

How is compliance engineering different from a compliance consultant?

Consultants produce documents; StackWeaver engineers controls into your workflows so evidence is generated continuously. That is the difference between being documented as compliant and being demonstrably compliant.

Do you offer a compliance scanner for fintechs?

Yes. StackWeaver runs continuous compliance scanning across your infrastructure, identity, and data pipelines — surfacing control gaps the way a security scanner surfaces vulnerabilities, but mapped to CBN, NDPA, SOC 2 and PCI-DSS obligations rather than generic CIS benchmarks.

What is regulatory compliance testing?

Regulatory compliance testing validates that controls actually behave as designed, through automated tests in your CI/CD pipeline rather than periodic manual review. StackWeaver engineers these tests so evidence is generated every time you ship, not assembled before an audit.

Compliance Engineering — Embedded Engineers, Not Consultants

Q: What is Compliance Engineering — Embedded Engineers, Not Consultants?

Embedded compliance engineers who implement controls in your stack, wire the evidence pipeline, and stay long enough for the system to survive their exit — the practice underneath Trust Infrastructure.

Compliance Engineering is the practice of implementing compliance controls inside the engineering systems they govern — access, change, monitoring, data handling — and wiring those controls to produce continuous evidence. It is the opposite of the deliverable model where consultants leave a PDF and a template library behind.

The problem with traditional compliance consulting

The dominant Nigerian and pan-African consulting model produces documents: policies, procedures, gap analyses, roadmaps. The controls those documents describe are then supposed to be built by an under-resourced internal team. They usually aren't — or they're built in a way that cannot produce evidence at audit time. The audit finds gaps; the consultant is re-engaged; the cycle repeats. This is not compliance. This is a business model built on unfinished work.

What Compliance Engineering delivers instead

Controls implemented in the stack. Access policies enforced in Okta and cloud IAM. Change controls enforced in GitHub Actions. Logging shipped and retained by pipeline. Encryption verified by scan.
Evidence emitted by operation. Every enforced control produces a record. Records are mapped to the frameworks they satisfy — see Control Mapping.
A system that survives our exit. The controls, the pipelines, and the runbooks are yours. Your internal team can operate them.
Framework-agnostic base, framework-specific overlays. One evidence base supports SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, CBN AML, and NDPA.

Who we look like on the ground

StackWeaver Compliance Engineers are senior — background in platform engineering, application security, or QA automation, with framework depth in SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and the Nigerian regulatory stack. They embed with your team, work in your repos, and are measurable against the same KPIs your engineers are.

Where this fits

Compliance Engineering is the delivery arm of the Trust Infrastructure Platform. It is the practice described theoretically in the Library entry and quantified against maturity in TEMM. If you want to see how it looks in production, read the NovaPay AML case.
