Infosys’ design head Rajagopalan resigns

Sanjay Rajagopalan, senior vice-president of Infosys who headed design and research, has quit the company, according to a posting on his personal page on the networking site LinkedIn.

He quit from Infosys a month ago after working for more than three years with the New York-listed firm. Earlier, he was a senior vice-president with the German software maker SAP from 2004 to 2014.

Former CEO and managing director of Infosys, Vishal Sikka, had quit the company last month following a public spat with the co-founder N.R. Narayana Murthy.

Mr. Sikka had hired about a dozen executives from SAP, where he was the chief technology officer.

“We do not comment on appointments or exits other than key management personnel,” according to a statement from Infosys.

Co-founder Nandan Nilekani took over as the new non-executive chairman of the Bengaluru-based company and reconstituted the board.

He replaced R. Seshasayee and Ravi Venkatesan, who were the co-chairs of the board, on August 24.
