Anshu Meena

Full-Stack & Systems Engineer from Rajasthan, India

I've been building software for the last 7+ years, mostly across web, mobile, desktop, and Linux. That has taken me from TypeScript monorepos to Zig-based print systems running on Raspberry Pis.

I like working close to the actual problem. I care about software that's easy to understand, doesn't hide too much behind abstractions, and keeps working when it leaves the happy path.

Right now, I'm building infrastructure and full-stack systems at PantryClub. Before that, I worked at BHuman.ai, along with spending several years building and contributing to open source projects independently.

Principles

A lot of how I write software comes from NASA's Power of Ten and TigerBeetle's Tiger Style. Keep things simple. Make assumptions explicit. Fail loudly when something is wrong. Prefer straightforward code over clever code.

Writing

I write about engineering, Linux, and philosophy at gxanshu.in/blog.

I'm always interested in talking about systems engineering, open source, Linux, or a problem that's difficult for a good reason.
