Hey, I'm Alankrit Verma ๐Ÿ‘‹

๐Ÿง  About Me

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Toronto (specializing in Software Engineering & Entrepreneurship), currently working as a Machine Learning Research Intern at Sony Interactive Entertainment in San Francisco. I'm obsessed with building things that matter โ€” from transformer-based recommender systems serving 10M+ users to organizing hackathons that move an ecosystem.

I've contributed to open-source at Google DeepMind (Agent Development Kit + TORAX), built ML infrastructure at PlayStation, researched algorithmic fairness at Rotman, and led impactful engineering at the intersection of systems and research.

When I'm not shipping code, you'll find me on the basketball court, deep in a paper, or yelling at my chess engine. Chill gif
