About

Hello! My name is Sriram. I recently received an M.Sc. in Physics from the University of Waterloo and Perimeter Institute, and earlier received a B.Tech. in Engineering Physics from IIT Madras. Over the course of my academic journey, I have been fortunate to be advised by: Dr. Beni Yoshida, Dr. Matteo Mariantoni, Dr. Uday Khankhoje, Dr. R Vijay, and Dr. Praveen Pathak

  • Domain Expertise: Quantum Information, Computational Electromagnetics, Computational Physics, Numerical Methods in Python and C++
  • Independent Learning: Generative AI with LLMs, CUDA for Image Processing, Transformer Architecture, Automatic Differentiation, LLM Pre-Training, Vector Databases

Advanced coursework I consider significant: Theory of Quantum Information by Prof. John Watrous, Quantum Algorithms by Prof. David Gosset, Computational Physics by Prof. Alexandros Gezerlis, Computational Electromagnetics by Prof. Uday Khankhoje, Convex Optimization by Prof. Krishna Jagannathan, Dynamical Systems by Prof. Arul Lakshminarayan, and Stochastic Processes by Prof. Manoj Gopalakrishnan

I recommend visiting the blog section to learn more about software skills I am interested in. I am drawn towards a career at the intersection of Physics Simulation, Multimodal AI, and Climate Action. Some areas I am open to good opportunities include (but are not limited to): Diffusion Modelling, Climate & Geospatial AI, Low Power AI SoCs, Quantum Devices, and Solar Cells.
