Hi, I am Rahul. I completed my master's at Stanford 🌲. Most recently, I worked at Skild AI on their post-training deployment team. Before that, I was at GEAR Lab at NVIDIA Research, where I trained robot foundation models (GR00T N1.6) and worked on RL. I was also an intern at NVIDIA's post-training 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 what makes good robotics data good. Before that, I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research on model compression. 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.
