ABOUT US

HyperionDev is one of the largest providers of accelerated online education in EMEA and one of the oldest providers of 'coding bootcamps' in the world. We work with top universities such as Imperial College London, University of Chicago, UCT and Stellenbosch University to deliver structured technical and digital courses and bootcamps that accelerate people into fulfilling careers. We have been recognised as one of the top education technology scaleups in the world and have gained the financial backing of Meta (previously Facebook), which recognised us as the most socially impactful startup operating in Africa, where we initially started our work.

We are dedicated to closing the global digital skills gap by integrating online education with human mentorship and expert code review, powered by a workforce in Southern Africa, to lower the cost of accessible technology education. This model has been successful, allowing us to reach millions of learners a year from over 60 countries.

Our ecosystem also includes HyperDev, a developer-focused spin-out building AI tools that help people turn ideas into working software while retaining control over their code. HyperDev extends our mission beyond education, supporting how developers build, learn and grow throughout their careers.

We're backed by nearly 2000 investors and have raised the largest crowdfunding round for an edtech company in history. As a primarily bootstrapped, profitable, and scale-up tech business, join us as we play our part in making the world a more stable, safer, and fair place.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
