MSCS @ Northeastern | Ex-AMD Software Engineer

Rahul Manish Jauhari

I build AI tools that help engineering teams move faster.

Former AMD engineer focused on AI infrastructure, AI knowledge search, backend systems, and performance tooling. Looking for a co-op building AI infra or search tooling for engineering teams.

Seeking co-op and internship roles in AI systems, backend infrastructure, AI knowledge search, and performance engineering.
2 years building production engineering tools at AMD
20-30% measured efficiency gains in AI workloads
260+ code reviews across engineering repositories

Flagship project

vLLM multi-instance benchmarking infrastructure

Why it matters: this setup tests whether one CPU machine can serve more LLM user requests by splitting traffic across isolated vLLM containers instead of relying on a single model server.

Built with Podman containers, per-instance model loading, CPU pinning, nginx request routing, and a benchmark matrix for latency and throughput scores.

Selected work

Two projects worth slowing down for.

The homepage now highlights the clearest signals for AI infrastructure and AI search. Deeper AMD projects are still available if a reader wants more proof.

Performance Public commits

Faster AI models on CPUs

Situation
A recommendation model was too slow because its AI framework did not natively use the underlying CPU acceleration library.
Task
Close the hardware-support gap without an existing plugin path to build on.
Action
Integrated AMD's ZenDNN library with TensorFlow and fused repeated model steps so the model could do less work per request.
Result
Delivered about 20-30% efficiency improvement at equivalent accuracy, lowering compute cost and improving response time.

Open to co-op conversations.

I am especially interested in teams building AI knowledge products, AI infrastructure, backend platforms, performance tooling, or systems for applied ML.
