Mate academy

We’re Mate academy, an EdTech company helping anyone, anywhere build a successful career through learning. We challenge how education works and prove it’s possible to switch to tech and non-tech roles in IT and beyond. Background doesn’t matter.💻 Our product is a gamified, AI-powered learning platform that helps people gain new skills and get ready for a new career.A few facts we’re proud of:

• 5,500+ employed graduates
• Ranked among the TOP 3 product employers by DOU
• Multinational company with operations in Ukraine, Poland, and Brazil
• Recognized as a ‘Rising Star’ in Europe by Atomico, Google for Startups, and Dealroom.co

160+ mates and 200+ mentors across countries – all-in and proud to build something that truly matters. All mates are driven by the same idea – helping our students learn a new profession and step into a new role. People genuinely give their best to make this happen (and often a bit more). And that’s also why we look for A-players. Our culture is simple and honest. We call it “no bullshit.” Three things matter to us:

• Absolute responsibility – own what you do
• Be humble – stay open, keep learning
• Be hungry – care about the result

We don’t believe in micromanagement or pointless processes. We trust people, give them freedom, and expect them to use it to do great work.
