Hi, I'm Aditya Bhandari

AI Research Engineer and Full Stack Developer

I am currently a 3rd semester Master's in Artificial Intelligence student at Boston University, where I also serve as a Teaching Assistant for the graduate-level course CS523: Deep Learning. Prior to BU, I worked at Barclays as a Senior Software Developer for 4 years. I completed my undergrad from IIT Kharagpur in Industrial Electronics.

About Me

I love to learn; I like questioning the fundamentals, and I'm a bit stubborn about accepting things the way they are. Imagination is fundamental to my learning. And solving problems from its first principles is my innate approach.

As a current graduate student in Artificial Intelligence at Boston University, I am fortunate enough to explore and dive into my interests in AI & Mathematics. I believe most complex things are pretty simple if you create a story out of them. Like most Mathematical equations that look complicated on first glance, usually emerge naturally from simple logic and common sense.

I am fast, agile & obssesed. I take ownership and deliver, even when tasks go beyond my current skillset.

Also, I value excellence, ethics, and innovation. Oftentimes, you'll see me taking a step back to get a bigger picture out of complex things. Understanding its wider impact, edge cases, and different perspectives helps me learn more.
