Harendra Pathak — CEO
Harendra's journey began in a humble environment, devoid of electricity till his teenage years. Yet, his determination propelled him to ace the JEE and further his education in Computer Science & Engineering at the esteemed IIT Dhanbad. Fueled by an insatiable curiosity, Harendra consistently strives to see the magic in the mundane. Throughout his career, he has thrived as a generalist, adeptly connecting disparate pieces to visualize the big picture by capitalizing on his voracious learning penchant. Harendra has amassed roughly two decades in the industry with tech giants like Tesco, Microsoft and Adobe, as well as dynamic startups such as Flipkart and Medlife, testifying to his adaptability in varying scales of the corporate world. At the heart of his management style is the emphasis on a genuine, strategy-driven culture. He's not only adept at crafting strategies but also at translating them into tangible actions. He's a master at steering cohesive teams, executing plans with excellence, adroitly navigating transformations, and adeptly handling crises. His natural and lifelong focus on fundamentals has primed him to excel at strategic decision-making (by discerning core issues from peripheral ones), communicating to diverse non-tech stakeholders (because of holistic understanding), recruiting and team building (because of ability to recognise foundational competence), coaching & mentoring, and understanding risk (because of ability to gauge potential pitfalls and limitations).
