M&A and deal analytics
I help analyse businesses through revenue, customer, product, cohort, ARR, and transaction data. The goal is simple: make the commercial story easier to understand before decisions are made.
Karthik Kannaiyan - Professional Profile
Professional profile
M&A analytics, AI strategy, and practical digital transformation
I work with teams that need to make sense of complex business, deal, and data problems. My focus is to turn that complexity into clear analysis, practical tools, and decisions people can act on.
I am a data and analytics professional with more than a decade of experience across EY India and Deloitte Germany. My work has covered M&A analytics, financial advisory, digital transformation, automation, reporting and AI-enabled business applications.
I enjoy working on problems where the answer is not immediately obvious. Sometimes the solution is a due diligence analysis. Sometimes it is a dashboard, a data model, an automation, a simulation or a small product. The common thread is that the work should make decisions clearer and reduce unnecessary complexity.
My background helps me move between business users, finance teams, data teams and technology teams. I like translating between these groups and building outputs that are practical, explainable and useful in real work.
Where I create value
AI and decision systems
I build tools, simulations, and AI-enabled workflows that help people test assumptions, compare options, and understand uncertainty in a more practical way.
Digital transformation
I connect business problems with data models, automation, dashboards, and product-style delivery. I like building things that are useful beyond one presentation or one meeting.
What this usually looks like in practice:
These are a few areas that reflect the way I work and the direction I am building towards.
Analytics that supports decisions
I have worked on analytics and reporting topics across M&A, finance, audit, operations and transformation. My focus is not only to show numbers, but to help people understand what the numbers mean and what they should consider next.
Systems that reduce repeated effort
I have helped build internal tools, reporting platforms, automation workflows and compliance systems that reduce manual work and make processes easier to run consistently.
Technology with business context
My technical work spans Python, SQL, Power BI, Tableau, Alteryx, Azure, Power Platform and AI use cases. I try to use technology in a way that fits the business problem instead of forcing the problem to fit the technology.
