Hi, I am Abhijat Bharadwaj, a final year Electrical Engineering undergrad (Dual Degree) at IIT Bombay who somehow ended up working across signals, systems, and software all at once. I spend most of my time building things, breaking them, fixing them, and then pretending the final version was the obvious solution from the start.
I’m a caffeine-fueled workaholic who thrives on long debugging sessions and deep technical rabbit holes. My academic interests span Generative AI, Explainable AI, computer vision, image and speech processing, and computer architecture. I’m fascinated by how signals evolve, how models learn, and how systems behave in unexpected ways—and I enjoy making them cleaner, faster, and more interpretable. My Master’s thesis focuses on multi-resolution techniques to explain generative models, and my research has also explored TTS stability, motion estimation, and secure cache vulnerabilities.
A major part of my journey has been with DevCom, IIT Bombay’s student team powering the institute’s digital backbone. I started by contributing to Mess-I, later became Project Lead, and eventually Overall Coordinator, leading a 30+ member team. We maintained and upgraded products like InstiApp, MyIITB, Mess-I, documentation systems, authentication services, dashboards, and more—tools used daily by over twelve thousand students. DevCom taught me scale, leadership, and how servers have a sense of timing that’s both impeccable and terrifying.
I’ve also interned at Qualcomm as a Computer Vision engineer, built micro-frontends at ASC-IITB, and designed datasets, models, and applications that real people rely on. I love learning, tinkering, and building tools that quietly make life easier. If something needs engineering, debugging, or refining, I’m usually eager to jump in.
Currently, I am exploring the unification of signal processing with artificial intelligence, especially in the following domains:
Image Processing and Computer Vision
Speech and Audio Processing
Multi-Resolution Signal Processing
Explainable and Interpretable AI
