Hi, I am Rahul. I recently completed my MS CS from Stanford 🌲 . Previously I was an intern at the GEAR Lab at NVIDIA Research training GR00T N1.6 and working on offline RL. . Before that, I was a summer intern at NVIDIA's post-training Nemotron LLM team working on looped transformer, and contributed to Nemo-RL (async RL).

I was also part of the ILIAD group (Prof. Dorsa Sadigh's lab). Prior to Stanford 🌲 I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research on Transformer Compression & Extreme Classification. My current interests are in RL+LLM and Robotics.

At Stanford 🌲 I have been a TA for:

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

In the future I look forward to getting replaced by AGI and work as a Wallace design protein farmer.

In my previous life (most of which I have forgotten), I completed my undergrad in CS from BITS Pilani 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.
