Hi! I'm Raja...

I'm a Research Assistant in the AI-Infrastructure team at Microsoft Research India (MSR-I), where I work on optimizing systems for efficient inference of Large Language Models (LLMs). Currently, I'm exploring ways to optimize the serving of vision transformer models. In 2023, I graduated from the Undergraduate Programmes at the IIT Bombay, where I earned my B.Tech (with Honors) in Computer Science. During my undergrad, I worked with Prof. Purushottam (Puru) Kulkarni on CXL and persistent memory.

My research interests broadly lie in computer systems, with a current focus on making them more efficient for modern machine learning workloads.

When deadlines are quiet and time slows, you may find me taking infinite walks, or sitting somewhere with a book. I used to weave my thoughts into words (check out the poetry below!), though I have stopped doing that recently.
