@karthickc
I drive enterprise B2B SaaS security sales—closing deals and scaling growth through consultative, risk-driven business development.
What I'm looking for
I bring 12+ years of experience across enterprise sales, with 9+ years focused on B2B global security software sales. I’m known for running end-to-end enterprise deals for CTEM and PTaaS programs, partnering closely with C-level and security stakeholders.
I lead consultative discovery engagements to map customer attack surfaces and turn security gaps into prioritized, business-aligned remediation programs. I also manage full-cycle proposals, POC’s, RFPs, SOWs, and pricing discussions while aligning outcomes to CERT-In, ISO 27001, SOC, and regulatory compliance requirements.
I’ve built and led SDR teams, managed channel partnerships and account partnerships, and consistently achieved targets by using MEDDPICC-style negotiation and strong pipeline forecasting. Highlights include closing $100k multi-year enterprise and government deals in APAC, plus delivering $45K–$50K in average quarterly revenue through direct and partner-driven opportunities.
