Last 4th of July, I was working. Stepped away to grill with my family, then got back to it.

Two unknown founders. No famous logos. Judged only on what we built.

Few places on earth where that’s possible.

To every founder heads-down this weekend: 🫡

Happy 4th 🇺🇸

@jacksonreit @ajhodls Same here. In fact me and my co-founder (CEO) had equal responsibilities. And we recently sold our startup after 2.5 years for over $200M 😊. So I would argue, it can actually work real well!!

RUBRIK’S FOUNTAIN OF TALENT

I would not hire myself for my job.

I would hire someone even better.

That’s been my philosophy for Rubrik from the beginning: keep bringing on better and better people to the team.

By increasing our talent density, Rubrik has become a launching pad for successful businesses. For example:

Glean, founded in 2019 by my co-founder Arvind Jain

WisdomAI, founded in 2023 by my other co-founder, Soham Mazumdar

Veza, founded in 2020 by our former GM Tarun Thakur

Eve, founded in 2020 by our first engineer Jayanth Madheswaran

Orum 🥇, founded in 2017 by our first SDR Jason Dorfman

Maxima, founded in 2024 by our early finance leader Yogi Goel

Augment, founded in 2022 by our early engineer Noel Moldvai

Observo AI, founded in 2022 by our former PM Ricky S. Arora

And many more…

I’m so proud of all our former Rubrikans’ success.

To me, their incredible achievements are a testament to our ability to attract high-performing talent and nourish their gifts.

I’m excited to continue to grow our team with future entrepreneurs and leaders.
