CS + AI/ML student

Devaansh Pathak

AI/ML and systems builder interested in reliable software, thoughtful evaluation, and practical research tools.

I work across LLM agents, reinforcement learning environments, evaluation systems, AI infrastructure, and applied engineering. This site collects my projects, writing, publications, and research notes as they develop.

Profile

Research-minded engineering

I like problems where models, tools, data, and systems meet, especially when behavior needs to be measured carefully rather than only demoed.

I use this space as a working record of what I am building and learning: research prototypes, software projects, implementation notes, and longer-form writeups. The common thread is a preference for systems that can be inspected, tested, and improved over time.

Interests

Technical interests

A few areas I keep returning to while building projects and reading research.

Reliable LLM systems
Reinforcement learning environments
Evaluation pipelines and benchmarks
AI infrastructure and tooling
Full-stack product engineering
Failure analysis and debugging

Current research thread

CrashDiag

A mechanically verified infrastructure-diagnosis RL environment for training agents to repair faults through bounded JSON actions, executable sandbox rewards, and state-based checks instead of LLM judges.
