Who is Vinay Hiremath, Indian-origin co-founder who sold startup for $975 million? co-founder of Loom, sold his startup for $975 million to Atlassian in 2023 but feels confused about his future despite newfound wealth. Vinay Hiremath's first big break as an engineer came in August 2012 when he joined a startup called Backplane. This is where Hiremath says he learned how to “hack”. This is also where he met Shahed Khan, with whom he went on to develop Loom, a video messaging company, reported Forbes. After spending a little over a year there, in September 2013, Vinay Hiremath joined another startup called Upthere, where he enhanced his technical skills and knowledge before finally co-founding Loom with Shahed Khan and Joe Thomas in 2015. He was the head of engineering at his startup for over four years before getting promoted to chief technology officer in April 2020.
