Shyam Anand
I'm a Software Engineer Consultant at Pyyne, Stockholm.
I moved to Stockholm in February 2024. Before that I was at Google, and at several startups before that, mostly in technical leadership roles.
I enjoy working on high level design for large scale software systems. I'm particularly interested in distributed systems.
I've also managed engineering teams in two startups, while being a hands-on coder.
I like music, particularly Heavy Metal, and the likes. Here's my playlist on Spotify:
I like to read, especially sci-fi. I'm currently reading Consider Phlebas (The Culture series) by Iain M. Banks. Some of my favourite books are The Expanse series by James S. A. Corey, Solaris by Lanislaw Lem by Amor Towles, and the Foundation series by Asimov. I have yet to read The Lord of the Rings. The Foundation series by Asimov, Murderbot series by Martha Wells, Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, Thinking: Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman, Brief Answers to the Big Questions by Stephen Hawking, Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari,
I like taking pictures, and I occasionally post on Instagram.
