Mentava Hiring Freshers for Software Engineer

Candidates from multiple batches are eligible for this role. Below are the detailed eligibility criteria and application process.

Job Responsibilities

WE ARE NOT ACTIVELY HIRING FOR THIS ROLE but we’re always interested in connecting with exceptional candidates. If that’s you, read on for more details.

About Mentava

We’re Mentava. Our mission is to accelerate human achievement through education.

We’re backed by Quiet, Floodgate, and more than 50 amazing angels like Tim Ferriss, Eric Ries, Garry Tan, Des Traynor, Balaji Srinivasan, Sheel Mohnot, Austen Allred, Amjad Masad, Mikhael Seregine, Jonathan Swanson, Dylan Field, Julian Weisser, and others.

Mentava is building software to support independent, accelerated K12 learning. We:

  • Teach kids to teach themselves
  • Provide software that lets them learn at their own, accelerated pace
  • Show teachers the benefits of allowing independent study in their classes

In our pilot, it took about 50 hours to get 2-year olds reading at a 2nd grade level. That’s about 30 mins a day(!) over 3 months(!) to cover what would take multiple years in school. And that accelerated pace of learning compounds: a child who can learn 2 years of content in a year should be a year ahead after kindergarten, 2 years ahead after 1st grade, 3 years ahead after 2nd grade…

We fully expect our students to complete college-level math and programming in elementary school.

Education creates pathways to success for kids of every socioeconomic class. When we encourage learning and achievement, we improve our society and our communities. Ultimately, to accelerate education is to accelerate human achievement.

How many lives would be lost if the MRNA vaccine came a year later? How many lives will be saved if humanity can cure cancer 1 year sooner? It’s no exaggeration to say that millions of lives are at stake.
