Hi, I'm Anand.

I'm a Growth Engineer at Ente.

I built CQ2 — a tool for RFCs, designed for thoughtfulness and coherence. It's 10x better than other tools used for RFCs such as Google Docs, GitHub PRs, Discourse, email threads, etc. It hit #2 on Hacker News, got 20k impressions, 235 early access sign-ups (Wave, PostHog, Deno, Pylon Lending, etc) and 300+ GitHub stars.

I built Wordamour — a personalised word search puzzle for your special someone. It has helped many people earn brownie points with their spouses and received 10 coffees on Buy Me a Coffee.

I was a Product Engineer at Frappe, where I maintained the Assets Management module in ERPNext and did a bunch of other things.

I built Samay — a group scheduling tool to help people find a time which works for everyone. It has been used to create 2.5k+ polls and got 300+ GitHub stars.

I was one of the SWE interns in HackerRank's Summer '21 batch, where I built the HackerRank Interviews for Slack integration and a bunch of features for HackerRank for Work.

I contributed to LiberTEM (under the Python Software Foundation) through the Google Summer of Code '20 program, where I enhanced the data pipeline to allow reshaping pixelated STEM datasets and built a feature for handling datasets with sync/acquisition issues (and continued contributing for more than a year).

I started and led FOSS OpenHack '20 — a program which helped 25+ students build 10+ open source projects and helped 3 students who went on to do a GSoC with MSS, CERN and Intel.

I helped develop and maintain my parents' WordPress news sites such as TelecomLead, and also did some freelance WordPress development for 5+ clients.

I wrote about tech news, did tech reviews, attended tech press conferences and produced tech videos for GizmoLead, which got ~3K subscribers and 1M+ total views.

My current areas of interest are startups, growth, product, movies, ritual social apps and psychology.
