Founded by IIIT Hyderabad alums Anshuman Singh and Abhimanyu Saxena.
Pre-Scaler, Anshuman was working with Facebook in the USA office as a Technical Team Lead where he helped in building Facebook chats and messages, along with Messenger. He then moved to London to build Facebook’s first office outside of the USA, which will work to automate the data ingestion framework. He is a competitive programmer and a two-time ACM ICPC World Finalist. Abhimanyu led a high-velocity team that designed NYC-based retail marketplace Fab.com’s entire front end before joining Scaler as a co-founder. As a seasoned entrepreneur, Abhimanyu co-founded his first enterprise Daksh Home Automation System in his engineering days.

Scaler aims to effectively enhance the skills of tech professionals with an industry-vetted approach. We are on a mission to create 1M+ world-class tech professionals by providing them with exceptional mentorship and relevant course material to #CreateImpact.

From preparing for interviews to helping them overcome their career hurdles, the assistance is provided via both 1:1 mentorship and group discussions. Apart from that, the Scaler Community of Learners, Mentors, and Alumni grows stronger by the day as we exchange constructive feedback, guidance, referrals, and other career opportunities.
Our learners spend an average of 3-5 hours daily on the platform learning and upskilling. We provide them access to a comprehensive curriculum, industry-relevant skills, Live Classes, Mock Interviews, and 1:1 Mentorship from over 1000 experts from established companies including Meta, Amazon, Google, Directi, and Microsoft. Combining all, we aim to bridge the gap between the Tech Industry and Tech Education.
In this dynamic world, where innovation is the catalyst for change, it is high time to revamp the tech learning system. The more we engaged with tech professionals, the more we realized the dire need for an industry-relevant curriculum and upright mentorship that helps aspiring learners upskill and forge ahead in their respective fields.
Within a year of starting our operations, we have successfully upskilled 4000+ graduates by assisting them to land their dream jobs in leading tech companies. Over 600+ organizations today trust us with their tech talent recruitment.
