About Raunak Kumar

As a Senior Cost Engineer at VVDN Technologies, I specialize in driving cost optimization strategies across product development, manufacturing, and supply chain operations. With a deep understanding of cost structures, supplier negotiations, and BOM analysis, I help bridge the gap between engineering and finance to ensure competitive pricing and profitability. I bring 4+ years of experience in cost estimation, target costing, and cross-functional collaboration across hardware, embedded, and IoT product domains. My work involves analyzing project requirements, standardizing costing methods, and partnering with design and procurement teams to deliver cost-effective, high-quality solutions to global clients. I’m passionate about leveraging data and market insights to build accurate cost models and support strategic decision-making. Whether it’s New Product Introduction (NPI) or value engineering, I thrive on solving complex problems and creating tangible value for both customers and internal stakeholders.
