About us,

Skill-Lync is building an online engineering college. We are re-engineering engineering

education. The last 2 decades have seen a disconnect between industry and academia, this

has resulted in colleges not teaching industry-relevant technical skills and thereby students

becoming unemployable. This is a global problem and at Skill-Lync we are determined to solve

this at scale.

Creating an altogether new engineering curriculum, taking it to the masses, and delivering it

to the students in a way that they fall in love with engineering is what our goal is. If you can

think about providing an education better than MIT or Stanford at a fraction of the price;

delivering the same high-quality education to everyone who takes it; and making sure they

succeed in achieving their goals as a result of our education. This is what we are building. We

are looking for individuals who can bring their experience and help us build an alternate

engineering college thereby providing high-quality engineering education to the future

generation.

Growth Story,

A brainchild of Sarang and Suryanarayanan started off by “Teaching 30 Mechanical Engineers,

Matlab” at the college from where they have graduated in 2013. In the next 2 years, they had

12 colleges using them to teach their Mechanical Engineers, Matlab. They thought of

expanding this idea since Engineering education is not helping the graduates to land their jobs

because graduates are not skilled enough to work in the industry, That’s the gap Surya and

Sarang wanted to bridge. That’s how they expanded the idea of giving upskilling/industry-

relevant courses to graduates and working professionals. There has been no looking back

from that time and there have been no regrets. In 2019, after applying to YCombinator for the

9

th time, their application got accepted in the WC2019 batch. In Jan 2019 Skill-Lync became a

YC company, we were a 20-member team with a strong focus on providing career-defining

online mechanical, and automotive engineering courses.

The new buzz now is we have raised $17.5 million in a Series A round, led by Iron Pillar. Binny

Bansal (co-founder of Flipkart), Sai Krishnamurthy

(co-founder of Flipkart), Sai Krishnamurthy (co-founder of Xto10X), and Rashmi Kwatra

(Founder of Sixteenth Street Capital) have joined in as new investors along with our existing

investors YCombinator and Better Capital.

Our team,

Right now, we at Skill-Lync have 2250+ dedicated, hardworking, perseverant people working

together and trying to make engineering education better. One of the greatest strengths we

have is a great team of alumni of leading global companies now working with us, Ex-Managing

Director of Accenture, Ex-VP Marketing of WhiteHat Jr, Samsung R&D Head, and senior

managers from BOSCH, ABB, Michelin, KPIT, Tech Mahindra, etc.
