I am a final-year CS undergrad at JNU (graduating 2027) looking for a Systems / Rust Internship, possibly transitioning into a full-time role after graduation (June 2027).

Recent work:

- Redox OS (RSoC 2026): Re-architected the kernel CPU scheduler from Round-Robin to Interleaved DWRR and finally to EEVDF with per-core runqueues and dynamic work-stealing (782x fairness improvement, 82% latency reduction). Featured on Phoronix (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Redox-OS-Goes-EEVDF).

- Rust & ML Infrastructure: Implemented Depth Anything V3 monocular depth estimation in pure Rust using Burn; contributed foundational ONNX ops.

- OS Internals & Writing: Authoring low-level deep dives bridging academic OS theory to real-world microkernel code. Just launched the "OSTEP & Redox" series: https://himwant.org/series/ostep--redox/

I am primarily interested in teams working on low-level infrastructure, operating systems, hypervisors/virtualization, database storage engines, or high-performance distributed systems. If your team is working on something interesting, even if technically adjacent, feel free to contact me!
