About

The start of Mentor Together is a story that reaffirms the power of mentorship. As a soon-to-be college graduate in 2007, Arundhuti Gupta had several ideas about how she could make a difference in her city, but needed an initial push and a safe space to explore her abilities. Dr.Rajeev Gowda was a Professor of Economics and Social Sciences at the Indian Institute of Management – Bangalore, striving to create a rich ecosystem in the city for young people to realize their true potentials. After a chance meeting at an educational conference, Dr.Gowda invited Arundhuti to join him in the start-up activities of a youth empowerment organization.From their initial experiences organizing career fairs in 2007, sprang ideas on the importance of trusted support figures for young people, during critical periods in their lives. Parallely, experiencing the power of Dr.Gowda’s own mentorship in her life, Arundhuti realized how empowered she felt helping young people. In 2009, she worked on the blueprint of a youth-mentoring NGO, while finishing her Master’s at the University of Manchester. Arundhuti and Rajeev formally registered Mentor Together as a Public Charitable Trust in November 2009, to pay forward their chance mentorship into a movement to help young people at-risk find caring and committed mentors.

About Us:


We are hiring for a pre seed funded startup called Zeromoblt (https://zeromoblt.com/), a high-agency Hyderabad-based startup revolutionizing student transportation with lean, intelligent tech stacks.


Our mission: architect world-class systems from scratch—fast, scalable, and algorithmically sharp—using Kotlin, React, AWS (EC2, IoT, IAM), Google Maps, and multi-cloud setups. Stealth mode operations mean you're building 0→1 products with founders, not fixing tickets.


What You'll Do

  • Lead end-to-end ownership of complex systems: design, build, deploy, monitor, and iterate at scale.
  • Architect high-performance backends in Kotlin (or JVM langs) that handle real-time routing and IoT data.
  • Craft scalable React UIs that power ops dashboards and parent-facing apps.
  • Drive cloud decisions across AWS, Azure/GCP—optimising costs for our bootstrap runway.
  • Apply DSA/system design to solve hard problems like dynamic route optimization and predictive scaling.
  • Shape the engineering roadmap: propose, prioritise, and ship features with founders.
  • Mentor juniors while executing solo on high-impact bets—no layers, just results.


We're Looking For

  • 3-6 years of hands-on engineering where you've owned and shipped production systems (prove it with code/stories).
  • Elite CS fundamentals: advanced DSA, system design (distributed systems a must), design patterns.
  • Mastery of Kotlin/Java + modern React; real AWS experience (EC2, IAM, CLI—you know our stack).
  • Proven "leap-taker": startup grit, side projects, or open-source that screams hunger.
  • Figure-it-out velocity: you thrive in chaos, learn our domain overnight, and deliver 10x faster than peers.


This Role Is Not For You If…

  • You need structured roadmaps, PM hand-holding, or big-tech process.
  • Comfort > impact: stable salary over equity upside and chaos.
  • You've never worn all hats (dev, ops, product) in a resource-constrained environment.


Why Join Us

  • Massive ownership: lead tech for 10k+ students, direct founder access, shape ZeroMoblt's scale.
  • Flat, high-trust team: flexible Hyderabad/remote, no bureaucracy.
  • Hungry culture: we hire hustlers scaling from 700 to 10k students your wins are visible daily.
  • Hungry to Leap? Apply now!
