Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAnup Panwar is a seasoned software engineer and founder with 10 years of experience building product-focused systems and open-source communities, currently an SDE 3 at Zepto. He founded The Algorithms, a widely followed GitHub organization (175k+ stars on Python repo, implementations in 32 languages), and has a strong track record of shipping backend and full-stack features across startups and platforms. His product work at Gojek cut ticket resolution times dramatically through automation, and he has architected data enrichment, recommendation, and search systems for e-commerce at Dpanda. A long-time OSS contributor and mentor (FOSSASIA, GSoC), he combines algorithmic depth—significant contributions to TheAlgorithms repos—with pragmatic engineering that ties ML/recommendation and real-time systems to business outcomes.
