Hello, I’m Hitesh, Founder and Principal at Equanimus Consulting and your CXO-for-hire.
I’ve spent the last 10 years managing & scaling hardware, software and SaaS products & services, leading product line management & business development in the Enterprise Networking, Cloud & Connectivity sectors at Google, Ruckus and startups & scale-ups.
By partnering with me, you get C-suite expertise across key functions like General Management, Product and Service Development, Partnerships, Business Development & Finance.
I’m passionate about helping founders take their companies from innovation to impact by offering my expertise, network, and operational know-how to help them scale sustainably and achieve long-term success.
My approach is hands-on and tailored: You get on-demand C-suite level expertise that you need today without the overhead. I immerse myself in your organization, thoroughly understanding your team’s needs and organizational objectives. We then work together at grassroots level, to define clear goals and develop a milestone-driven plan with shared responsibility & ownership.
We create actionable initiatives to achieve measurable progress. Through regular reviews—whether weekly or monthly—we track KPIs, align with set goals, and refine strategies as needed to ensure sustainable growth and success.
