The Person

HELLO,I'M PRANAV.

Engineer by training, researcher by obsession, teacher by habit.

Boston, MA

01 · Bio

I'm a software engineer and ML researcher finishing my MS at Northeastern. I spent two-plus years at Oracle shipping clinical-pharmacy systems at real scale, then went deep on research: pore-pressure meta-ensembles, generative models for tabular data, and foundation-model adaptation, with two publications so far. I also teach. I have walked 250+ grad students through machine learning and deep learning. I like problems that need both a researcher's rigor and an engineer's "but does it actually ship." When I'm not doing that, I'm usually doing three other things at once.
