© 2026 Manvi GuptaTranslating complex business logic into intuitive, high-conversion user journeys - including AI-native product experiences. I align abstract goals with seamless execution — combining a founder's mindset with Microsoft experience.
Pressure-testing ideas through rapid prototyping and multi-method research. I integrate AI to augment brainstorming and streamline process efficiency, and my mathematical background ensures that decisions remain grounded in data.
Bridging the gap between design and development, by eliminating technical friction and accelerating shipping velocity — a standard practiced at Apple.
I specialize in making complex systems invisible. From leading teams to build accessible internal tooling for Apple to completely revamping Azure and Fabric SQL monitoring at Microsoft, I thrive where logic meets high-fidelity execution — and a background in Mathematics means that logic is grounded in data, not just instinct.
For me, design is a dialogue between users, designers, and developers — where strategy and aesthetics work together to create something that feels effortless. With a CS degree from BITS Pilani and a Master's in HCI from Carnegie Mellon University, I am equally comfortable navigating a whiteboard strategy session as I am building a high-fidelity Figma prototype or auditing code for design fidelity.
When I'm not shipping products, I'm practicing yoga (a habit since I was 8), exploring global cuisines, or experimenting with new painting and crafting techniques (latest being crochet).
