• Skilling with a difference: We are one of the very few education companies in India that have been able to do all the following things together: deliver outcomes, stay lean (under 50 people), raise funds in a down market from top investors, have an infinite runway, as well as lead a completely new whitespace.
• Experimentation & Build: We have a culture of rapid experimentation, freedom to fail & iterate, and owning scale-up through process building
• Thriving Market Opportunity: We are building in a whitespace with massive opportunity & headstart - India has 15 million people entering the workforce every year and less than half a million job. Your impact will help create a dent in India’s future
• Work with a stellar team: Great missions require great people - and we are fortunate to have some of the smartest and nicest people support us in our journey.
