At Gusto it seems that most female engineers specialize in backend.

Do whatever you like and are good at
You can solve some really complex scalability issues with Backend . Nothing like that with front end, besides front end Technologies change faster than I could change my pants
"Complex scalability issue" - dont fool yourself, most issues at backend are commonly solved problem(s) centered around crud operation. The only one who do complex scalability issue is probably like 0.5% of the whole industry. That being said i do agree frontend has a lot fewer scalability issue and even when they do its not as challenging as backend scalability issue.
