About Me

Hello! My name is Ayush Anand and I enjoy creating things that solve social challenges globally. I'm a software developer who loves experimenting with algorithms and software systems, currently working at Zomato while contributing to open source projects.

Things I do 💻

  • experiment with algorithms and software systems, love playing with their internals at Zomato.
  • volunteering software engineering time at MBON (Marine Biodiversity Observation Network), working to save animals
  • writing a weekly blog of thoughts into tech, stem, nature and mankind - read me on Medium
  • Hacker's Tribe community member - Delhi NCR's largest open source community

Projects I'm working on 👨‍💻

Things I did previously 🔎

  • working at JP Morgan Chase as a Software Engineer, building tools that solve critical business issues.
  • worked as a software developer for Crypto News Feed Streaming Platform
  • worked as the vice chair of the student society at my campus - ISTE Students' Chapter NIT Durgapur Students Branch.
  • created a custom branded ChatGPT alternative for a South American EdTech Company.
  • worked at a Web3 AI "deep-tech" startup, developing cutting-edge AI Apps.
  • worked on mapping diversity through diversity indices.
  • created a AI based conversation booking ecommerce site with an American Fitness Brand.
  • built a med-tech app to detect heart disease using eye images.
  • built an open-source python package for fetching Earth and Atmospheric data as easily as calling a function.
  • worked with a Child Care NGO to implement a code for good project against child abuse, using a web-based chatbot that can help reduce unreported abuses.
  • built a blockchain powered tool to track hospital beds and ventilators in COVID19 hospitals.
  • ran a Rotary Sponsored Interact Club with programs such as raising awareness against Polio Eradication and Donation drives to local Orphanages in high school.

Experience

Software Engineer @ Zomato

Dec 2024 - Present

  • Increased completion of critical sales tasks by 35% by shipping a real-time push notification platform (Go + Kafka); designed idempotent consumers, retry/backoff, and rules-based routing so the right teams acted on the right events fast.
  • Cut invoice processing cost 10x and cycle time 50% by building an automated extraction & attribution pipeline on in-house LLM services; unified ingestion → parsing → validation → posting → approval, with confidence thresholds, fallbacks, and finance audit logs.
  • Built a ledger accrual and vendor payout system with SFTP based Bank integrations (using Go, Kafka, DynamoDB, Redis) to automate disbursements for 10K+ vendors daily, saving nearly 20 hours of man-power weekly and reducing errors in payouts.
  • Improved reliability and security across a microservices stack by optimizing high-latency APIs (profiling + hot-path rewrites) and remediating critical vulnerabilities; introduced safer defaults (authn/z, secret handling) and CI checks (linting, SAST/DAST) to harden production.
