Why Us:
We are looking for engineers with “co-founder” mentality to join us and lead the building of a product that is changing the face of education like Uber changed urban mobility.

• It has taken us just over an year to onboard 8 Million users with a mere 12 strong engineering team
• This is due to the right problem selection and pure product & engineering focus instead of hard-selling
• We have built a massive suite of features to run classes on our platform that 10L+ teachers love to use
• Teachers and students interact live for over 30 million hours using our conferencing solution generating 4-petabyte data every month
• This scale could not be handled by any off-the-shelf solution, so we built our own implementation of video conferencing starting from WebRTC implementation to QOS based bandwidth control RFCs
• This is just one of the many things we are building from scratch: live whiteboard, live annotations, hand raise, etc
• 1,000 machines on the cloud churn out the class recordings that are available to students to run through 24×7
• 7. 60 Million events and 5 million notifications are sent every day between android/ios/web devices and our server
