I'm Vikhyat — I build things that actually work in production.
Currently wrapping up an NSF-funded thesis at Virginia Tech on the Conflict Architecture (CA): a novel framework that cut mission latency and energy consumption for autonomous UAVs. Thesis is public, code is open-sourced — go poke around.
Before that, two years at GE HealthCare shipping real-time MRI software on FDA-regulated hardware. The kind of place where "it works on my machine" isn't a punchline — it's a liability.
I've also been building RAG systems and models from scratch on the side. Best way to actually understand the principles. There's even a RAG pipeline on this site that knows all my work — give it a shot.
Patent holder. 4.0 GPA. Interests span the full stack: circuit design and robotics up through Software Engineer Principles, cloud infra, AI/ML, and LLMs.
When I'm not in a model or a system design, I'm testing a vegan recipe or sketching the next idea. If you're building at the intersection of autonomy and AI — reach out.
