Summary
Arav Agarwal is a Machine Learning Infrastructure Engineer with nine years of experience building cloud-native ML systems and teaching applied AI at scale. He led multiple teams at Carnegie Mellon to produce LLM-enabled content generation tools and authored courses on cloud-native LLM inference used by U.S. Army students and government analysts. Arav combines hands-on infrastructure work—OAuth, KrakenD, Nginx, KNative, gRPC streaming—with research productivity that contributed to 10+ publications and 400+ citations. His background spans end-to-end ML tooling from automated molecular ML training pipelines that doubled developer productivity to production-focused inference stacks. Based in Rochester, MI, he bridges academic rigor from CMU and UM engineering with pragmatic engineering at MLCommons, and maintains a secondary GitHub presence for experimental projects.
