SkilledUpLife

Manoj’s vision as the Solo Founder & CEO is to help create a fair playing field for humans above 18 years of age irrespective of their circumstances, as long as they can connect to the Internet through a Computer. We achieve this by creating a thriving SkilledUp Life community which includes:

  • Cash-strapped Tech Founders who want to change the world by creating scalable digital products but do not have sufficient capital to fill all their vacancies with paid talent.
  • Individuals who understand the value of gaining real experience and demonstrable skills to improve career prospects including landing the first job to career transition.

In essence, we are helping to:

  • Develop a global talent pool.
  • Build tech companies.

Manoj started the journey in the summer of 2020 as a one-man band. Today, the SkilledUp Life is growing thanks to our own SkilledUp Lifers. We have over 90 Volunteer Team Members from Canada to China via Europe and Africa across 7 teams:

  • Product – building V2 of SkilledUp Life.
  • Marketing – Brand development and demand generation.
  • Sales and Customer Acquisition.
  • Customer and Volunteer Support.
  • Human Resources – Recruitment, On-boarding & Off-boarding, and Performance.
  • Volunteer Acquisition
  • Partnerships – Education providers and Accelerators.

We are also our best customer. We have learned through failure and share our experiences with our tech startup customers to ensure they do not also make the same mistakes.

If you wish to join our team, please check out the current Opportunities. We offer entry, management and leadership Volunteer Opportunities.
