I was part of their first cohort. I got a job offer through them. I would say that the instructors and mentors are from top product companies and their approach of teaching is very practical and effective. Also the capstone project was quite interesting unlike regular YouTube tutorials which added great value to my resume.

I was part of the Backend Engineering Launchpad from Airtribe, and it’s been a transformative experience for me. Through the course, I gained hands-on knowledge in Node.js, explored various databases and their real-world use cases, and dove deep into both low-level and high-level system design. The structure of the program, along with the mentorship, helped me strengthen my fundamentals and apply them to real-world projects. It’s been a great journey so far, and I’m truly grateful for the community and the support system it offers.

I highly recommend Airtribe's Backend Engineering Launchpad for anyone looking to deepen their backend development skills. The course offers a well-structured curriculum with in-depth coverage of key concepts, supported by mentor guidance. Personally, it helped me gain clarity not just in backend topics but also in approaching DSA problems more effectively. A big shout-out to the Career Services team as well. They were always accessible and played a crucial role in helping me identify and apply to companies that aligned well with my skills and aspirations.
