Saad A Akash

Hey there, it's Saad. I'm a builder and a mentor.

I lead teams that build products, ship projects, and scale protocols that solve meaningful problems. I help founders build data-driven solutions, mostly in the form of decentralized software & distributed systems. As a founder running an interdisciplinary tech & media venture studio with a background as an engineering manager at a Silicon Valley Web3 venture studio & fractional CTO at a Texas-based IT consulting firm, my experience enabled me to explore the intersection of product design (why), engineering (how), and people (who). I mentored over 100+ software and design professionals over the course of 6+ years.

Other than all the professional crap above, I identify myself as a panda. Pandas are solitary creatures who prefer the freedom of being alone. My 3 M's are music, mochaccino & memes. My 3 P's are poetry, photography & pandas.

Oh, and there are some links below that you don't need to click.
