Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAbhik Ahuja is a 3D reconstruction engineer with nine years of experience combining cutting-edge computer vision research and production engineering, currently building perception systems at Zoox. He holds an MPhil in Advanced Computer Science from Cambridge and a BA in Computer Science and Mathematics from UC Berkeley, where he helped author a SIGGRAPH ’23 paper on text-to-3D generation using NeRFs and diffusion models. Abhik has strong full-stack chops—shipping React/Three.js front-end features and backend data fixes for Nerfstudio, an influential open-source NeRF project with thousands of stars. His background spans academic research in PL and hardware verification to industrial-scale CI/CD and deployment automation at Amazon, reflecting an unusual blend of theoretical rigor and production impact. Based in San Francisco, he’s equally comfortable keyframing camera paths in visualization tools as designing scalable versioning and deployment infrastructure.
