He looked after Swiggy's technology backbone.

Swiggy's co-founder Rahul Jaimini is leaving the online food delivery giant to join Pesto Tech, a career accelerator start-up, as a co-founder.

Jaimini leaves Swiggy after having co-founded it with Sriharsha Majety and Nandan Reddy in 2014. Jaimini will continue to be a board member and a shareholder at the company.

This is not a goodbye, it's more of a thank you 😇🙏

After being a part of the @swiggy_in founding team and the close family we've all become over these past 6 years, it's time for me to take up a new challenge.https://t.co/Oi9LZFQL4I
