Pratyush Patel is a PhD candidate and graduate research assistant at the University of Washington with 12 years of experience designing efficient computer systems, particularly for socially impactful technologies. He focuses on making Large Language Model inference deployments more efficient and sustainable, bringing repeated research internships at Microsoft where he improved LLM GPU deployments, developed VM-aware power management for heterogeneous servers, and worked on hypervisor and cluster scheduling. His background spans top research labs including Carnegie Mellon and Max Planck, and he blends systems-level rigor with practical production tooling experience from earlier internships. Based in Seattle, he pairs deep academic training with hands-on engineering that targets real-world datacenter efficiency and sustainability challenges—often uncovering cross-layer optimization opportunities that are easy to miss.
