Kartikeya Awasthi
@kartikeyaawasthi
12 years across consulting and in-house B2B marketing leadership with a through-line of building demand engines for technology companies.
What I'm looking for
I've spent 12 years turning marketing departments into pipeline machines for B2B technology companies. My work sits at the intersection of GTM strategy, demand generation, and hands-on execution. I'm as comfortable building a campaign architecture in HubSpot as I am presenting a revenue impact model to a CXO.
Currently, as Associate Director of Marketing at Pyramid Consulting, I own a three-brand portfolio (Pyramid, Celsior Technologies, GenSpark) and built an AI Marketing function from the ground up: content generation pipelines, predictive scoring models, and automated creative production. Before Pyramid, I led marketing as Marketing Head at WalkingTree Technologies and FCI CCM, and spent years inside Accenture, EY, and Coforge learning how large enterprises buy technology.
What I bring to any team: the ability to build the complete demand machine, from ICP research and positioning through multi-channel campaigns to closed-won attribution. I build interactive tools (calculators, ROI models, diagnostic assessments) that do the selling before a rep ever gets on a call.
MBA, NMIMS Mumbai. B.Tech, GGSIPU Delhi. CII National Gold and Silver recognition for AI and Industry 4.0 initiatives.
