I am a Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research India where I work on Systems | AI Infrastructure research. I am primarily interested in working on fundamental computer systems problems with current focus being more on optimizing large laguage model (LLM) inference.

I obtained my PhD from the Department of Computer Science and Automation at Indian Institute of Science, working with Prof. K. Gopinath and Prof. Arkaprava Basu. My thesis explores various OS techniques (i.e., optimizing huge pages and NUMA memory management) to improve the efficiency of virtual memory abstraction - a pre-requisite to building efficient large-scale memory systems and applications. During PhD, I received the Prime Minister's Fellowship Scheme for Doctoral Research, co-sponsored by the Confederation of Indian Industry and Microsoft Research India. I also received the best PhD thesis award from CSA.
