Sandeep has completed his Master’s and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he was honored as the student commencement speaker by the Henry Samueli School of Engineering (https://commencement.seas.ucla.edu/2022-awards/), Class of 2022 (an honor bestowed upon only 1 out of 1000+ graduating students). He earned his B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Roorkee (Class of 2014) with first-class distinction.
Sandeep's research on Artificial Intelligence (AI), specifically the Mango library for training machine learning models, is used in designing commercial CPUs powering billions of devices, including Samsung and iPhone smartphones. More details on Mango can be found here: https://github.com/ARM-software/mango
Most recently, at Abacus.AI, he led multiple teams of engineers/researchers in Generative-AI, forecasting, predictive modeling, vision, and anomaly detection. His GenAI team released 'Dracarys-ver2', which not only competes but also outperforms models like Chat-GPT4O, Claude, and Gemini on coding benchmarks.

Sandeep serves as a program committee member for top AI conferences and as a reviewer for leading journals in the field. He has published over 60 research articles in prestigious conferences and journals in computer science (Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=nSifjcgAAAAJ). His most recent research paper on Large Language Models, completed in collaboration with Yann LeCun’s group (Chief AI Scientist at Meta, widely regarded as one of the "Godfathers of AI" and a Turing Award winner), will appear at the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR 2025).
Sandeep has extensive industry experience, having led AI research at Abacus.AI, Amazon, ARM, Teradata, IBM, and Oracle. His research is implemented in production, with applications ranging from controlling robots to designing precision agriculture strategies.
At UCLA, Sandeep served as the student president of the Computer Science Graduate Student Association for four years and as the coordinator of the Los Angeles Computing Circle (LACC). As part of LACC, Sandeep extended STEM programs focused on AI/data-science with practical skill-sets to students from several school systems in California (https://sites.google.com/site/computingcircle/2021-summer). He is also an industry expert on AI and an invited speaker for faculty development programs organized by IIT Roorkee for Indian universities. Additionally, he has authored two books to guide Indian students through the admission processes for top universities in the USA.
