Pathak was a founding member of the technology team at Goibibo, a travel app founded by IndMoney founder and CEO Ashish Kashyap.

“I am thrilled to be a part of the IndMoney team as we work together to create tech-driven, trustworthy products. The solutions boost people’s efforts to manage and plan their financial lives and achieve their goals “Pathak stated.
