We're looking for builders, thinkers and missionaries who want to work on real products, with a global mission, from India. You won't be a cog. You'll be a builder — and the things you touch are live, used by real people, and part of something going global.
Most jobs ask you to fill a seat. We’re asking you to take responsibility for a mission: that AI growth becomes a right, not a privilege of geography, language or income. If that lands somewhere real for you, you’ll do the best work of your life here.
We can't pretend to be Google — and we won't. The honest pitch is the stronger one.
Our products are live. Real users, real feedback, real revenue. You're not working on a demo or an internal tool — you're building something people actually use.
You'll use AI every day — not just as a user, but as a builder. Everyone here works AI-natively. If you want to understand how AI products actually get built, there's no better place.
A small, high-ownership team. Your work shows up in the product, the brand and the outcomes. No layers, no committees — just you and the problem.
'Nobody gets left behind by AI' isn't a poster — it's why every decision gets made. If that mission matters to you, you'll fit here.
Six principles — short, honest, no corporate language.
Everyone uses AI tools — not just knows about them. We build AI products; we should be the first to demonstrate what AI-assisted work actually looks like.
See a problem, fix it. See an opportunity, flag it. There's no chain of approval for ideas — there's a bias for trying.
We say what we think, quickly and specifically. We don't soften things until they're useless.
We don't count hours, we track results. Work from wherever you're most productive — the output is what matters.
We share what we're building, what's working and what isn't — internally and externally. A team that learns openly compounds faster.
Every feature and decision connects back to 'does this help someone grow with AI?' If it doesn't, we question whether we should do it.
A handful of small, high-ownership teams — each owning real surface area across the platform and the movement.
4 roles EngineeringBuild the platform a billion people will grow on.
We ship a full-stack AI platform — eight products on one intelligence layer — to production, fast, with the craft it deserves.

1 role DesignMake powerful AI feel obvious.
We design products that a first-generation college student and an enterprise CEO both find effortless — across eight products and one system.

3 roles Marketing & GrowthTell the story of a movement.
We take 'nobody gets left behind' from a belief to a brand — across campuses, channels and countries — and turn attention into growth.
Explore Marketing & GrowthThese are the roles we realistically need at this stage. Don't see your exact fit? If you believe in the mission and you're exceptional, pitch us anyway — some of our best people created their own role.
Our interns work on real products, with real users, under direct mentorship from the founding team. You'll ship code, run campaigns, build content or talk to customers — depending on your track. It's a three-month, unpaid, learning-first program, and we're upfront about that: you invest the time, we invest real mentorship and real responsibility — and you leave with a portfolio of actual work, a verified credential, and a fast-track to a paid role.
Work directly on a live product — fixing real bugs, shipping real features, deploying to production. You will not be building a to-do app for practice.
need · Basic proficiency in the relevant stack (React, Python, or AI/LLM tools) and the willingness to learn fast. The ability to ship beats the ability to explain.
CS / engineering students in their 2nd year or above, recent graduates
Design screens for real products, build brand assets, create social visuals and contribute to the StudAI One design system.
need · Figma proficiency, basic design sense, willingness to take feedback and iterate.
Design students, or engineering students with a design interest

MBA students, marketing students, anyone who wants to understand growth in a real company
Write blog posts, build SEO content, research the competitive landscape, contribute to the AI Growth Report and the thought-leadership calendar.

Journalism, communication or MBA students — anyone who writes well and thinks clearly
Shadow and then execute real BD — outreach to institutions, qualifying leads for Engage/Works, managing the CRM pipeline in BOS.
need · Communication skills, no fear of rejection, willingness to call and message real prospects.
MBA or business students — anyone who wants to understand B2B sales from day one
Run Elev8 workshops at colleges in your area, recruit the next generation of ambassadors, and build the movement on your campus.
need · Comfort with public speaking (or the willingness to develop it) and a connection to a college campus.
Students currently enrolled in college who want to build the movement from inside
Honest and specific — not a generic perks list.
Four steps, made explicit — because unclear processes kill good candidates.
Submit the form. No cover letter required — we ask for your name, the role or track, a link to your best work (GitHub, portfolio, a piece of writing, a campaign you ran), and two sentences on why you want to work here.
If your work looks right, a 20-minute video call with the hiring lead. We check communication, curiosity and fit — not trivia.
A short, paid task close to the real work. Engineering: a small feature or bug fix on a real codebase. Marketing: a brief and a sample campaign. Design: a screen redesign with a short explanation.
A genuine discussion with Paul or Vidhya, depending on the role — about the company, the role, what you want and what we need. Not an interrogation.
We aim to complete the process in under two weeks, and we tell every applicant where they stand — no ghosting.
// not an employee — a believerElev8 Ambassadors run free AI literacy workshops at their college. You don't need experience — you need commitment and a stage.
We're not a big company. We're building one. The people who join StudAI One right now will look back in ten years and say they were in the room when it started. That's a real thing — and it comes with real responsibility. We work hard. We care about the mission. We're honest about what we don't know yet. If that sounds like where you want to be, we want to hear from you.
