my story

Born and raised in Bokaro, Jharkhand, I completed my engineering degree from Manipal Institute of Technology in 2012. Started off my career with Network Security and Artificial Intelligence and finally ended up at Microsoft as an SDE working primarily on Microsoft Teams Platform.

why I left my Microsoft job?

why I left my Microsoft job?

why I left my Microsoft job?

It was during Covid-19 outbreak in 2020, when I stumbled upon the job market. Talked to many students and found how finding a job in development had become worrisome.
I started teaching WebDevelopment to students with the vision to get their careers started. But doing it alongside my Microsoft gig could have been difficult. So, I left the cushy job and dedicated myself to change the way educational learning works.

how I can help you build your career?

In the past 4 years of working in the higher education sector of the country, I have realized that learning a skill in a way that leads you to a job is quite different from the way we learn in our college years.

Having developed programs that have helped thousands of freshers start their careers - whether it be in tech or business - I strongly believe that you are in the right place.

If you are ready to work hard every day and put in the hours, keep on reading!

roc8 launched

During COVID, I noticed a 5x increase in LinkedIn messages asking for Microsoft referrals due to the bad job market. That’s when I met Swapnil (ex-Amazon, ex-Meesho, IIT Guwahati), who wanted to help students get jobs. We started an online job challenge where students built 5 projects, and we pitched them to companies. This initiative helped 50+ students land their first jobs and eventually turned into the startup roc8, led by Swapnil, which has placed thousands of students to date. If you know programming and web development and need guidance to get your first job, roc8 is the place to be.

but the to-be-devs needed guidance

As soon as the job challenge launched, students began asking for project resources. Existing courses were too advanced, so in 2021, I created a user-friendly, foundational web development course. Since then, the boot camp has helped thousands learn programming and secure jobs.

what about the world outside tech?

By 2022, neoG Camp and roc8 were placing thousands of students. A student's request for guidance for his B.Com. graduate sister inspired Invact. I collaborated with experts, and we have since trained and placed Business Analysts in various companies. If you have a Commerce or Business degree, check out Invact to become an industry-ready Business Analyst.

“I came to learn web dev, but Tanay Bhaiya, you have not even taught us how to think, break problems and code the solution, but also taught us to become a better person. You made us fall in love with coding in a real way,I never thought I could be this consistent. I could never have improved this much on my own in just 4 months. Thank you for being our mentor and elder brother, I will always be grateful to you.”
