Profile: https://flows.cv/raghavgupta

As a Software Solutions Engineer at Vector and an MBA Candidate at Santa Clara University, I work at the intersection of technology, business strategy, and user experience. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, I help develop and refine solutions for enterprise clients like Kraft Heinz, Louisiana Pacific (LP), and Conagra, ensuring that products align with both user needs and business objectives.

Beyond engineering, I actively contribute to product strategy, feature prioritization, and user engagement initiatives, working closely with stakeholders to optimize activation, retention, and overall product experience. My ability to translate technical insights into strategic decisions allows me to drive meaningful impact.

With a background in computer science and business from UC Riverside, I’ve always been passionate about building products that create value. Now, as I pursue my MBA at Santa Clara University, I’m expanding my expertise in product development, go-to-market strategy, and data-driven decision-making—skills that enable me to bridge the gap between engineering, business, and user experience.
