About
Every year, the United States needs approximately 400,000 new engineers. Yet according to BCG and SAE International, nearly one in three of those engineering roles will remain unfilled each year through at least 2030, persistent talent gap that risks undermining essential industries and critical government investments.
Engineering identity, the belief that engineering is for someone like you and me, forms before middle school. J.H. Lindo is a children's media and education technology company building at the earliest and most overlooked stage of the engineering talent pipeline, the K-5 classroom, where identity is still forming and the window is still open.
Our Mission
Engineering identity starts here.
We create educational resources that introduce K-5 students to engineering through story, play, and hands-on problem solving.
By an Engineer, for Future Engineers
Jamila H. Lindo was born in Jamaica and raised in both London and New York City. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. As a young professional, Jamila found herself as the only woman of color in rooms that once felt unimaginable, from engineering one of the largest transportation projects in the United States, to solving problems at the world's leading technology companies.
She founded J.H. Lindo because she wanted to change what those rooms look like. Jamila serves on the New England Board of the National Girls Collaborative Project, an NSF-funded network advancing girls in STEM.
