Work

Research Intern, Azure Research - Systems, May 2024 - Jul 2024

• Developed Cerulean, a system that uses LLMs for microservice system design.
• Mentors: Rodrigo Fonseca, Alok Gautam Kumbhare
• Other Collaborators: Pedro Las-Casas, Celine Irvene, Jonathan Mace, Gagan Somashekar, Chetan Bansal

Research Intern, May 2019 - Aug 2019

• Worked under the supervision of Dr. Jonathan Mace
• Developed Sifter, a tool for sampling unique distributed traces, without feature engineering.
• Designed, developed, and implemented Cobbler, a tool for automatically instrumenting distributed systems source code for producing distributed traces.
• Implemented XTrace tracing library for C++ and Lua
• Implemented a coverter for converting XTrace traces to ShiViz compatible logs.
• Instrumented DeathStarBench, a microservices benchmark suite, to produce X-Trace compatible traces.

Software Engineering Intern, May 2017 - Aug 2017

• Intern with the Modular Diagnostics (MODS) Team
• Implemented memory repair sequences as scripts to repair bad parts of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM). This resulted in increasing GPU yield.
• Designed, developed and implemented a CUDA based linpack test to stress every bit of memory to weed out GPUs with bad memory in the early stages of production.
• Designed and deployed an internal website that reported every release version of the MODS application, the last change in the release and a link to download the release.
• Ported CUDA threading stress tests from CUDA teams to MODS.

Software Engineering Intern, May 2016 - Aug 2016

• Intern with the Modular Diagnostics (MODS) Team
• Implemented a synchronization option for CUDA based linpack stress tests in MODS to synchronize CUDA kernel launches within 30µs across multiple GPUs in multi-GPU systems like DGX systems.
• Ported MODS code and windows builds to msvc140 from msvc90 to enable C++11.

Software Developer Intern, Sep 2015 - Apr 2016

• Intern with the Sequoia team
• Designed, developed and implemented the frontend and backend of the 3D PDF export option in Sequoia which allowed users to export their 3D models in PDF files by implementing a writer class for the U3D file format.
• Implemented import options for Lidar point cloud file formats of scanners from Riegl and Zoller + Fröhlich.
• Implemented binary string obfuscation making the licensing system more secure.
• Ported Unit tests from Boost Test Framework to Google Test Framework.
