Experience


Internships

  1. Research Intern, IISc Bangalore [May’24 - July’24]:
    • Investigated secure graph analysis, focusing on improving the efficiency of the Secure Shuffle protocol—a key building block in MPC-based algorithms. Studied recent approaches (e.g. CGP19, EB21) using lightweight primitives (OTs, PRFs) to improve efficiency over traditional public-key or permutation-network methods.
    • Studied the lower bounds on the round complexity of Perfect Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) in the BGW model, with particular focus on AKP20, exploring similar lower bound results in other security models.
  2. Research Engineer Intern, Krutrim [May’25 - July’25]:
    • Explored Agentic AI and Multi-Agent Systems, focusing on coordination, fallback strategies, and cross-platform orchestration in agent workflows, as part of the team that built and deployed Kruti.ai.
    • Studied research directions on agentic planning, fallback mechanisms, and observability in multi-agent environments [DSJ18 (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8352646).
    • Benchmarked large language models (Llama, Qwen, etc.) across providers and evaluated performance tradeoffs relevant to scalable multi-agent systems.
