Haseeb Jawad is VP and Head of Corporate Development at Commvault, where he runs a lean team with end-to-end accountability across strategy, sourcing, diligence, negotiation, and post-merger integration. He has led acquisitions across multiple companies, including Carbonite, where he ran two to three deals per year for over six years, and has sat on both sides of a transaction after Carbonite was acquired by OpenText in 2020. He also serves as the central IMO lead across Commvault's integrations, which puts him in the seat where culture either holds or falls apart.
