About Praveen Karunakaran

I have 10+ years of experience in Sales Operations, covering renewals, license review, deal desk support, and customer success operations in enterprise SaaS environments.At ServiceNow, I manage a renewal pipeline of $800M+ with a 98% conversion rate, handling around transactions a year. I built the License Review function from the ground up, led a team of 6 analysts, and work closely with Legal, Finance, Deal Desk, and Order Management on a daily basis.I also worked with the team to introduce AI-based automation that simplified routine renewal requests into a one-click process — which freed up a significant amount of time from manual work and let the team focus on what actually needed attention.Before ServiceNow, I spent close to 3 years at Dell EMC in Sales Operations handling quoting, CRM management, and post-warranty renewals.I like clean processes, clear ownership, and getting things done without overcomplicating them.
