Advance your engineering career with the help of industry experts

There’s a lot of material available online that dives deeper into how to code. From tutorials to documentation, engineers have many resources to learn about programming languages and algorithms.

Taro takes a unique approach and does the opposite. Taro teaches you the higher level engineering skills needed to advance your career.

After you master solid coding fundamentals, you’ll discover there is a whole set of skills that differentiate great engineers from good engineers. Taro aims to fill this educational gap.

Our platform dives into topics like how to be an effective tech lead, which include guidance on how to manage a project from start to finish and how to help your teammates maximize their careers.

In addition, our platform helps with communication. In the engineering world, you need to articulate your ideas and offer solutions in a clear and concise way. This can be just as important as the code that you write. We help teach you how to communicate effectively so that all stakeholders can understand and collaborate effectively.

We also help out with many other topics. We encourage you visit our Q&A forum and watch our video masterclasses to see what kind of content we offer.

Here are two testimonials from members who have used Taro to advance in their career:

I am absolutely fortunate to have found Taro. A structured way of getting mentorship is something I have been looking for all my professional life. I cannot wait to grow and share my success based on what I learned on Taro. I would love to extend the membership to a second year.

My manager has been dropping many hints that my performance was stellar last quarter. Taro Premium has made such a difference in how I operate and prioritize my time. I went from doing siloed projects with questionable impact to doing cross-org efforts with measurable impact.

We love seeing new contributions each week from experts: tech leads, directors, experienced engineers, and many others who have carved out a niche for themselves in the tech industry.

Strong communities attract strong people, and Taro is no exception. We are very proud of the caliber of professionals who make the choice to contribute to our Q&A forum, videos, and events. These individuals not only bring a wealth of knowledge, but they also bring a strong sense of mentorship. They are passionate about sharing their experiences and guiding the next generation of engineers.

The collective expertise and dedication makes Taro an invaluable resource for engineers.

One word: Credibility.

Taro is differentiates itself from platforms like Blind and Reddit by emphasizing credibility and quality. While other platforms offer a broad range of discussions with varying levels of expertise, the content on Taro is created by trusted and verified experts in engineering.

Taro is intentionally transparent. By eliminating the cloak of anonymity, we minimize the potential for toxicity and gossip, fostering a more constructive environment.

Each Taro contributor is an accomplished engineer with meaningful and verified experiences. When you consume our content, you are learning from the best minds in the industry.

Generally once a week. Our events include formal presentations with experts, interactive sessions with other members, and physical meetups in cities across the world. Many of our events come from members like you! If there’s a topic you care about, let us know and we’ll help you make it happen.

We have mobile apps so you can take insights from Taro with you wherever you go! Check out our Android and iOS apps. Read all feedback – we reply to all reviews to constantly improve our product.

We have tons of events and discussions entirely for free (and it always will be!). However, we do limit deeper interaction to people who have joined our paid community, Taro Premium. This ensures a commitment to career growth, unlocking the ability to ask and answer questions and network with other engineers similar to you. No one pays money to be a troll!

Taro goes beyond just being a learning platform. It’s also a vibrant community of engineers. When you become a member, you gain exclusive access into our Networking Platform where you can meet other Taro members.

Taro members work at large, established tech companies all the way down to small startups. The Networking Platform exists to help you find referrals and explore new job opportunities, learn about different technologies through coffee chats, or practice mock interviews.

We built the platform to foster organic connections, allowing members the ability to share insights, exchange stories, and learn from one another.
