Hi, I am Rahul. I completed my master's at Stanford 🌲. Most recently, I worked at Skild AI on their post-training team. Before that, I was at GEAR Lab at NVIDIA Research, where I trained robot foundation models (GR00T N1.6) and worked on offline RL. I was also an intern at NVIDIA's post-training Nemotron LLM team, working on looped transformers, and contributed to Nemo-RL (async RL).

At Stanford 🌲, I was part of Prof. Dorsa Sadigh's ILIAD lab, working on robotics data. Before that, I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research on transformer compression and extreme classification. My current interests are robotics (and trying to find meaning in a post-singularity world).

At Stanford 🌲, I was a Teaching Assistant for:

• CS 153 — Infra at Scale (with Anjey Midha and Michael Abbot)
• CS 234 — Reinforcement Learning (with Prof. Emma Brunskill)
• CS 224R — Deep RL (with Prof. Chelsea Finn)

In the future, I look forward to getting replaced by AGI and working as a Wallace Design Protein Farmer.

In my previous life (most of which I have forgotten), I completed my undergrad in CS at BITS and wanted to win India its first Oscar Award for Best International Film. For more details, check my CV or my favourite movies of all time.
