We Want To Change The World. We Believe It Starts With Education.
In India, 100 million children from low-income communities grow up without access to the 21st-century skills they need to thrive — from emotional intelligence and digital literacy to everyday money management. This gap leads to a lifetime of limited opportunity, intergenerational poverty, and rising mental health concerns.
What Are We Doing?
At The Apprentice Project (TAP), we're building India's boldest bet on education equity — an AI-powered learning buddy that helps thousands of government school students unlock 21st-century skills. We don't just teach coding or financial literacy — we spark self-confidence, creativity, and lifelong curiosity in children who've been told to "stay in their lane."
We're not looking for employees. We're looking for co-builders — people who want to create generational change, one student at a time.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who enjoys making things happen — someone who gets energy from working with people, solving problems on the ground, and seeing the direct results of their effort. You don't need years of experience. You need to be someone who takes initiative, follows through, and genuinely cares about the work. You'll be working with government officials, school leaders, and teachers every day — so you need to be comfortable navigating those relationships, persistent when things don't move easily, and organised enough to keep multiple balls in the air. If you want a role where you can see your work translate directly into a child's learning experience — you'll thrive here.
