Seeking Summer/Fall 2027 Internship Roles

Naghul Adhithya Venkateswaran

CS & Data Science @ UIUC

Focused on machine learning & high-performance systems across GPU-accelerated computing, low-latency execution, and distributed systems.

About

Building systems that are fast, efficient, and built to scale.

I build high performance systems with experience spanning machine learning and software engineering. My interests focus on GPU systems, low latency computing, and machine learning for scalable infrastructure.

I enjoy understanding how systems operate internally and building infrastructure that improves performance, efficiency, and scalability.

Outside of technology, I lead teams, stay driven through running and lifting, document the journey, and capture perspectives through photography.
