I’m Utkarsh Shukla, Founder of SkillEdgeApp, an AI-powered career guidance and upskilling platform built to bridge the persistent gap between education and employability.

At SkillEdgeApp, we help students, job seekers, and working professionals make confident, data-driven career decisions using AI-led psychometric assessments, real-time industry intelligence, personalized career roadmaps, and skill-gap analysis. Our focus is on aligning individual potential with evolving market demand—so talent becomes future-ready, not just qualified.

What drives me is solving a problem I see repeatedly: capable individuals struggling with career clarity, while organizations struggle to find job-ready talent. I believe career decisions should be personalized, outcome-focused, and informed by real-world data—not guesswork or trends.

As a founder, I work across product vision, AI-led solution design, and go-to-market strategy, collaborating closely with educators, HR leaders, and industry partners to build scalable, impact-driven solutions at the intersection of AI, education, and workforce transformation.
