Abhimanyu Saxena

Abhimanyu Saxena is one of the co-founders at InterviewBit and Scaler Academy. Passionate about creating something new, he started his entrepreneurial journey during his B.Tech days - co-founding ‘Daksh Home Automations Systems’ with his batch mates. Together they developed a cost-effective and green AI-based system that helped households reduce their monthly electricity consumption. The company was later sold to a reputed organisation based in Malta, although it was a paltry amount it was a huge motivator for Abhimanyu and his friends. In 2010, he joined Progress Software as a programmer and worked with them for a year and a half building scalability solutions for the research labs and the largest airlines of the world . He moved to Fab.com in New York and worked with them for over three years. While working with Fab.com, Abhimanyu experienced a scarcity of skilled tech talent owing to the considerable gap that exists between the university curriculum and the skills that are required to succeed as a software engineer. This led him to join hands with his college friend - Anshuman Singh and launch InterviewBit. Since its launch in 2015, Abhimanyu and the team have been able to build InterviewBit into one of the most popular skilling and tech recruitment companies in the country. In 2019, they successfully launched Scaler Academy - an online career accelerator program - the next step in the evolution of InterviewBit.
