Where StartupsBuild Faster.With EngineersWho Ship.
Real micro-projects. Vetted student engineers.
Affordable for founders — career-defining for students.
Early startups are stuck between too expensive and too slow.
Meanwhile, engineering students across India are graduating with strong fundamentals — but zero real-world portfolio work. They want to build. They just need the opportunity.
Full-time hires are out of reach
Hiring a full-time engineer is out of reach for most early-stage startups with limited runway.
Freelance platforms are a gamble
Flooded with unvetted bidders. Hours wasted on proposals, interviews, and disappointments.
Your idea can't wait
The perfect hire takes months. Meanwhile your product stalls and competitors move fast.
The gap is real. The talent is there.
The connection was missing.
Simple as 1, 2, 3.

We exist to close
one gap.
Ten4Teen was founded on a simple observation: the best engineering talent in India is sitting in colleges, and the fastest-growing startups can't afford to hire them full-time.
We built a structured talent network — not a job board, not a freelance marketplace — purpose-built for both sides of that equation.
Talent shouldn't wait.
India's best engineering minds are in colleges right now — ready to build, eager to ship. They shouldn't have to wait for graduation to do real work.
Startups shouldn't compromise.
Early-stage founders deserve access to skilled engineers without the overhead of full-time hires, agencies, or unreliable freelancers.
Real work changes everything.
A production project does more for a student's career than any internship certificate. We built the bridge that makes that possible.
