Why Fast Tech Academy

The gap between where you are
and where you want to be is bridgeable.

Most engineers prepare with outdated resources and no real feedback. We offer something genuinely different.

Real industry perspective

Your mentor has 21 years of engineering leadership — she knows exactly what interviewers look for because she's been the one hiring.

🎯

For engineers at any stage

Whether you're a student targeting your first role or a working engineer levelling up — the program is built to meet you where you are.

🔬

Hands-on, not just theory

Every track includes real coding labs, system walkthroughs, and live problem-solving — not just slides and lectures.

🤝

Small cohort, real attention

Cohort 1 is intentionally small so every participant gets genuine 1:1 time — not just a ticket number in a 500-person course.

🏆

Built for outcomes, not completion

We measure success by your interview results and role transitions — not certificates or completion rates.

🕐

Fully flexible — built around your life

Sessions are customised to your schedule, preferred topics, and pace — whether you need a deep-dive programme or an intensive crash course, we adapt to you.

Arti Awasthi
Senior Engineering Leader · HBTU Alumna

21 years of engineering leadership. Now passing it forward.

Arti is a senior engineering leader with over two decades of experience building and leading engineering teams across AI/ML and software products. She has worked at the intersection of technology and product — hiring engineers, growing talent, and shipping software at scale.

An alumna of HBTU, she understands the journey from campus to industry firsthand — and the gap that too many engineers fall into without the right guidance at the right time.

Fast Tech Academy is her initiative to change that — bringing real, experienced mentorship directly to engineers who are ready to accelerate their growth.

FAQ

Questions answered.

What is the fee structure?
Students pay a nominal fee with a valid student ID. Working professionals pay a standard fee based on track and duration — and get 50% off their next month for every colleague they refer, with no cap on referrals. The first 5 female students to register receive a special offer — enquire for details. Everyone gets a complimentary 1:1 intro session with the mentor before committing to anything.
Who is this program for?
Anyone who wants to accelerate their tech career — final-year students targeting campus placements, freshers, or working engineers looking to transition or level up. If you're serious about improving your technical skills and interview performance, this program is for you.
Do I need prior AI/ML experience for the AI/ML track?
No. The AI/ML track starts from fundamentals and builds up. You need foundational programming knowledge and basic math — but no prior ML experience. Just bring the willingness to engage seriously and do the hands-on work.
Is System Design only for experienced engineers?
Not at all. While system design interviews are common for experienced roles, many campus placement rounds also include them — especially for product companies. The track is designed to be useful for both freshers and working engineers.
What does the Communication track cover?
This track helps you articulate your thinking clearly under interview pressure — structuring answers, thinking out loud, handling ambiguous questions, and presenting yourself confidently. Technical skills alone aren't enough; how you communicate them matters just as much.
How much time commitment is required?
We're finalising the exact timeline for Cohort 1. Expect live sessions a few times a week plus self-study between sessions. The full schedule will be confirmed once cohort dates are set — you'll receive this during your intro session.
