From IIT Roorkee to FANG companies… then he QUIT the high-paying life for us.

This is the insane story of Harkirat Singh, the guy we all know as @kirat_tw, founder of 100xDevs.

• Cracked JEE Advanced with AIR 658, landed in IIT Roorkee CSE (2018 batch).

• Competitive coder, GSoC twice, ACM ICPC participant, built real stuff in college while most were just surviving.

• Graduated and joined the big leagues: Goldman Sachs, multiple FANG-level roles, finance, and high-growth startups.

• Multiple switches, learning at every step, hitting solid packages most dream of.

• But Harkirat wasn’t satisfied building for others.

• In 2023, he went all-in on teaching, restarted YouTube seriously, launched 100xDevs cohorts.

• Hyper practical, project-heavy, zero-fluff full-stack web dev (MERN, Next.js, System Design, everything you need to ship and get hired).

• No empty promises. Real mentorship. Real placements.

• Today?

600K+ YouTube subscribers

Thousands of students placed in top companies

His cohorts are known for turning average devs into job-ready engineers fast

• Bootstrapped. No hype. Pure execution and impact.

• He left the cushy corporate path to build his own "college" 100xSchool for every kid who wants to break into tech the right way.

This isn’t just a career story.
This is a builder’s story.

If you’re a college student, self-taught dev, or feeling stuck in the rat race…
Harkirat just showed you don’t need to wait for permission. Ship. Teach. Scale. Repeat.

Tag that one friend grinding right now who needs this fire 🔥

@ScalerSohom I'm glad, that it resonated with you:))

[PoonamM @ThriveMindspace]

To become good at coding, you need to be great at both "giving the correct instructions" & "efficiently following the given instructions".

You are the instructions giver and the instructions taker atst. And then running a self/external feedback-improvement-doing loop again ig

The past few days were surprising, transformative, and full of moments I once only dreamt of ✨
So much to share… very soon 👀

Grateful to @kirat_tw bhaiya for Super30 @100xSchool, for building a space that doesn’t spoon-feed, doesn’t handhold, but gives honest reality checks.
That push changed a lot for many of us.

Inspired by @AdityaBhatia89 at 100xSchool AI Summit, your vision of intuitive robots for SMEs via affordable arms is powerful. Human-centered AI+robotics!
I have a question-
What excites you most about human-robot interaction?
