Unacademy cofounder and CTO Hemesh Singh quits edtech startup

Cofounder of SoftBank-backed Unacademy Hemesh Singh Saturday said he has stepped down as the chief technology officer after nearly nine years with the edtech major.

Singh will move into an advisory role, he announced on social media platform X.

“After almost a decade of building Unacademy with Gaurav Munjal and Roman Saini, I have decided to move from an executive role to an advisory role… We did change the test prep industry for good. What a crazy journey it has been,” he said.
