About Raj Singh Rajawat

I\'ve built things, measured things, and fixed things. Now I want to do all three for a founder: who doesn\'t have time to do any of them alone. My career has been an unconventional loop: engineer → management consultant → ad tech operator → founder (twice). Each turn wasn\'t random. I\'ve been chasing a specific kind of work — where ambiguous problems need structured thinking, where data has to become a decision, and where someone has to own the outcome end-to-end. At ZS Associates, I did that for global clients. I ran Marketing Mix Modelling and promotional analytics engagements that redirected $12M–$27M+ in annual spend — not by building better models, but by translating model outputs into recommendations that clients\' leadership teams would actually act on. That\'s the skill I want to bring to a Founder\'s Office: the ability to go from messy data to clear decision, at speed. At PubMatic, I operate at the intersection of marketplace strategy, business intelligence, and cross-functional execution. I sit close to where the money moves — and I\'ve learned to translate between technical, commercial, and operational teams in ways that create forward momentum instead of friction. I\'ve also built from scratch. KisanSe was a D2C food brand I founded during Covid — a supply chain I designed end-to-end, a market I had to figure out with no playbook. That experience lives in me differently than any consulting engagement ever could. What I bring to a Founder\'s Office or Chief of Staff role:→ Structured thinking under pressure: consulting-trained problem decomposition applied at startup speed. → Data fluency without data dependency: I know when to model and when to decide. → Cross-functional credibility: I\'ve worked with engineers, marketers, finance leads, and C-suite stakeholders across US, India, and Middle East markets. → Founder empathy: I\'ve been on the other side of the table. I know what it feels like to make decisions with incomplete information and real consequences. → Communication as a lever: I write and present in a way that gets alignment, not just acknowledgement. If you\'re a founder or operator building something that needs a sharp, data-literate, full-stack strategic partner, let\'s talk. Excited about Chief of Staff, Founder\'s Office, and Strategy & Operations roles at high-growth companies.
