Abhishek Agarwal — Software Engineer
AI Engineer and Researcher with 13+ years of experience across academia and industry. My background spans information-theoretic security, LLMs, and applied machine learning. During my Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota, I solved a 75-year-old open problem in statistical group testing. I have published extensively in IEEE journals and conferences in the fields of Information Theory and Machine Learning, including the prestigious NeurIPS conference in the field of AI. Since then, I’ve bridged research with real-world impact—developing AI-powered systems for code analysis, OCR, biomedical data pipelines, and secure document retrieval. I thrive at the intersection of theory and deployment, with a focus on building elegant, scalable solutions. Let’s connect if you’re working on ambitious problems in AI systems, or research-driven engineering.
