I’m Satwik, a Computer Science & Data Science student at UC Berkeley. I am currently working as a founding engineer at LawLoop and GRU Space.

In the past, I’ve worked on a variety of projects:

  • I was the youngest engineer at Advocate where I built most of the ML infra for their LLM-facing insurance compliance software that is integrated into their core platform.
  • Researched under the Professor Prasant Mohapatra on the topic of Double Momentum Backdoor Attacks in Federated Learning.
  • Worked on Noise-Resilient Federated Learning Models through Robust Aggregation Methods at the UC Santa Cruz SIP Program. Presented at the Sigma Xi Research Conference.
  • Developed a multimodal extractor that uses NLP and Computer Vision to extract information from Mental Health Records, MRI, and other biomarkers to differentiate between Lewy Body Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease.
  • Built a startup called Neigh — a two-sided marketplace for neighbors to rent and lend essentials to one another.

I’m interested in using Blockchain — specifically using Zero-Knowledge Proofs to turn spare GPUs into a compliance-verifiable, energy-aware AI cloud run by its users. I’m also interested in DeFi and Ethereum Development (check out my analysis on 3Jane Protocol) at Blockchain@Berkeley.

I’m also interested in startups, AI, philosophy, economics, and more.

On the side:

  • I’m a massive Warriors fan (Go Dubs!)
  • I love to read and write about practically anything
  • I’m big into working out and staying fit
  • I’m a conisseur of wildly vast musical genres

I’ve made it my goal to build and learn in public which is what I intend to do here. If you have any interesting recommendations, want to work on something together, or just want to meet reach out through email or twitter @therealsatwik!
