Product Manager · Navi Mumbai, India
Hi, I'm Akhil.I ship products with AI tools faster than most teams ship tickets.

real projects, honestly labeled — see all in Work ↓
A product manager who still opens the terminal.
Based in Navi Mumbai. Daily motorcycle commuter between Ulwe and Ghansoli, and someone who treats Sunday rides as the one hour nobody gets to schedule over.
Started the NextLeap PM Fellowship in January and it became the anchor for a full move into product management — the fellowship's research and growth tracks turned into real artifacts, not just coursework.
Technically hands-on by choice: Antigravity and Claude Code aren't hobby tools, they're how ideas get from a Notes app to a working Supabase-backed product in a weekend.
Built and shipped FilingPilot's website from scratch, and keeps a rotation of side builds — a martial arts academy PWA, a motorcycle maintenance tracker, an AI movie recommender — each one a different rep at the same skill: shipping.
Writing in public under Young, Dumb & Learning and publishing cadence-driven observations as Noah on No Signal — letting people watch the process in real time.

Where the work actually happened.
Not bullet points — the product story behind each role.
Working inside a compliance-heavy product environment — the same territory FilingPilot competes in, seen from the other side of the table. Compliance products live or die on trust and clarity, not feature count, and that's the lens every decision runs through here.
Products, not portfolio pieces.
Everything here is a real build or structured research — labeled honestly by what stage it's actually at.

The decisions that keep repeating.
Framed as a commit log on purpose — these are the ones that show up in every build, not slogans picked for a slide.
ship the ugly version first
Antigravity and Claude Code exist to compress the distance between an idea and a thing you can react to. The ugly version answers questions the spec doc can't.
name it before you design it
MOA Filings existed as a name — Moin, Akhil, Memorandum of Association — before it existed as a screen. Naming forces the positioning argument you'd otherwise have in every later design review.
talk to users before you trust the metric
The AI Trust & Output Evaluation study ran surveys, interviews, and task observations before any dashboard got built. A number without a person behind it is a guess with better formatting.
design for the role that opens the app
DojanHub has an admin, a coach, and a parent, and none of them should feel like they're using someone else's software. Start with the highest-stakes screen for the hardest-to-please role.
keep git hygiene like it's the product
Vibe-coding tools make it easy to skip discipline because the output looks finished. Strict commit hygiene is what makes an AI-assisted build maintainable past week one.
transparency is a cost, spend it on purpose
Claude Navigator only surfaces its reasoning when confidence drops — trust-building UI that fires on every action just becomes noise the user learns to ignore.
What's actually in the stack.
