Anish Mehta is a seasoned software leader and founder with 11 years of experience building products from first release to millions of users and multiple acquisitions. As the first full-time engineer and later VP of Engineering at Actively Learn, he scaled the team to 18 engineers, led two acquisition due diligences, and single-handedly re-architected and launched a math product in under a year. Currently Co-Founder and Head of Engineering at Alongside, he has shifted focus to tackling adolescent mental health with the same product-first, data-driven approach. Comfortable both in the codebase and in the boardroom, he pairs hands-on implementation experience (from startups to Amazon and Microsoft) with strong customer-facing instincts developed by building directly with users. Based in Seattle and grounded in a CS degree from RPI, he brings an uncommon mix of scrappy startup engineering and proven M&A execution.
