About Anshuman Kumar

I'm a software engineer at Flexera in Bangalore, working on FinOps AI: cloud-cost anomaly detection and the agents that explain it.

Away from work, I'm usually running or cycling, playing board games, watching films, or making coffee. I like cooking too, when I can.

I write about software, AI, movies, cycling, running, and whatever else catches my attention. This is where those interests end up.

Off the clock

I got back to running and cycling in February 2026 after a long break.

  • Running and cycling, with the occasional race or very long ride.
  • Board games.
  • Cooking, when I can.
  • Coffee. I have a professional grinder and a De’Longhi EC685 that I cannot recommend enough.
  • Watching and analysing films, especially horror and thrillers.
  • Memes, pop culture, and trying out new tech.
