An AI marketing enthusiast,
connecting dots in public.
15 years in B2B marketing. Currently a Lead Digital Strategist at Cadence Design Systems in Bengaluru. On the side: experimenting, building small things, and trying to map how AI is changing the way marketing actually gets done.
What I actually do
At Cadence, my day job is digital strategy — the kind that touches SEO, content, paid, marketing ops, the website, and the AI tooling we're rolling out across the marketing team. I lead a small, cross-functional crew that ships campaigns and the systems underneath them.
Outside of work, I read papers, take apart prompts, ship side experiments, and write about what I'm learning. This site is the notebook for that side of things.
Why "AI Marketing Engineer"
Most marketers are still drawing campaigns. The work that's growing fastest looks more like building data pipelines, designing prompts, wiring agents into workflows, and instrumenting AI-engine visibility. That's engineering work in marketing's body. I find it more useful to name the role than pretend it doesn't exist.
I'm not selling myself as a guru — I'm an enthusiast, connecting dots in public. The map is being drawn as I publish.
