In a LinkedIn post, Rajagopal wrote, “After 11 years, 10 Big Billion Days, 7 different roles, 3 very different companies (Flipkart Myntra Cleartrip) , time has come for me to bid adieu to the Flipkart group – the OG of the startup ecosystem in the country.”
“Every aspiring professional in their 20s looks for a dream company to work at. For some it happens and for many it doesn’t. I was lucky in my case to have gotten into my dream space 11 years back. From the day I stepped in to onboard the first seller on the marketplace to the last day of figuring out how to offer the best experience for a traveler, the journey has been so fulfilling and enriching. I came into the org as a maverick go-getter and exiting now as a well rounded executive (I would like to believe so),” the post read.
“Me leaving the Flipkart group which has been my home for the last 11 years and starting up is my own independent decision since I have always wanted to be an entrepreneur and I feel the time is right to do it now. Flipkart has churned out several entrepreneurs in the past and am happy to join this list. It will be in the consumer tech space and it’s something that I’m super passionate about solving and I believe it’s a massive problem that’s not solved yet. Watch out for this space for the next big update,” Rajagopal said.
