About

Greetings, I am Harshit Gupta, a dedicated computer scientist currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Computer Science at Stanford University, following an honors graduation from IIT Bombay. Significant accolades, including the President of India Gold Medal and the Shri Rakesh Mathur Excellence Award, have distinguished my academic journey. I am a co-founder of PhnyX Lab, a research initiative committed to advancing state-of-the-art technologies and making them accessible to the general masses. Our lab is fully backed by SK Networks, a leading conglomerate in South Korea, underscoring our commitment to impactful innovation. My research endeavors span a range of domains, including the reevaluation of dataset generation for link prediction and the development of abstraction-based techniques for translation validation. At Stanford, my projects focus on the formal definition of policies and the customization of large language models (LLMs) for academic use. My past professional experience includes serving as an ML Application Engineer Intern at Abacus.AI, where I developed time series forecasting models, and as a Software Engineering Intern at Optiver Services B.V., where I enhanced communication stacks for more efficient and reliable data transmission in financial markets. I am passionate about leveraging my skills and knowledge to drive technological advancements and contribute meaningfully to the field of computer science.
