Arjun Rao is a machine learning researcher and PhD student at University of Colorado Boulder with nine years of applied experience building robust deep learning systems for remote sensing and autonomy. As a Visiting Researcher in Serge Belongie’s group and former ML scientist at Orbital Sidekick, he has designed and deployed end-to-end foundation-model workflows for satellite imaging and studied on-board inference constraints for spaceborne sensors. His background spans academic research at CUHK and hands-on engineering at JPL, where he focused on improving model robustness for imaging spectrometers. Comfortable moving between theory and production, Arjun brings interdisciplinary strengths in computer vision, distributed optimization, and instrument-aware ML that accelerate real-world scientific missions.
