Akshay Menon

Associate Solutions Engineer

Engineer by training, problem-solver by nature.

I build measurement solutions, agents, data products, and automation systems that turn messy business problems into working tools. Currently at MiQ, working across AdTech, and customer-facing technical delivery.

I’ve worked in software, data, advertising, and AI, and I just like making things work. I’ve shipped software, run campaigns, built agents, and automated away the boring stuff.

Personal Projects

CoverDriveClub.in - Founder & Operator

Founded and operate an India-focused cricket apparel brand, covering product strategy, creative direction, storefront operations and growth experimentation.

Alongside the business, I built a lean AI-assisted operating system using Hermes Agent. It uses reusable skills, scheduled jobs and tool integrations to support research, product development, creative workflows, e-commerce reporting and campaign analysis.

The system connects workflows across Google Workspace, Shopify, Meta Ads and Discord. Actions are deliberately scoped: agents handle research, preparation and monitoring, while publishing, advertising spend and customer-facing decisions remain under human approval.

GeoPulse (archived) - Geopolitical Intelligence Dashboard

Archived demo — the daily pipeline ran live through April 2026 and is now paused. Preserved as a working snapshot

Full-stack production dashboard built with Next.js, Python, and Vercel, delivering daily geopolitical intelligence with zero manual intervention.

Engineered a self-updating pipeline: scheduled GitHub Actions trigger automated web search, Claude synthesises and structures the findings as validated JSON, and the frontend renders the briefing. Owned pipeline orchestration, structured-output parsing, and retry/error handling end to end.
