Achyudh Ram is a Software Development Engineer with 10 years of experience building scalable, ML-driven systems for supply chain and forecasting at Amazon and production backend platforms at Shopify and Intuit. He blends deep learning, information retrieval and distributed systems—grounded in an M.Math. from the University of Waterloo—to deliver latency-sensitive, production-ready solutions such as predictive auto-scaling and demand forecasting. His research background in computational linguistics and software analytics complements hands-on engineering, evident in contributions to PyTorch-based document classification tooling (castorini/hedwig) involving training pipeline and negative-sampling implementations. Based in Toronto, he’s equally comfortable optimizing big-data query execution and shipping robust backend services, with a practical knack for merging research ideas into production code.

PyTorch deep learning models for document classification
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer & ML Engineer
Contributions:70 commits, 33 PRs, 12 pushes in 1 year 3 months
Contributions summary:Achyudh's primary contribution involved merging code from another repository (`castorini/castor`) into the `hedwig` project. This includes substantial changes to the `nce/nce_pairwise_sm/train.py` file, implying involvement in the training of a deep learning model. The code changes suggest the implementation of a model for document classification using PyTorch, potentially incorporating techniques such as negative sampling and margin ranking loss. Further commits show modifications to the project's build configuration and dependency management.
