About Me

Anuj Kalia

I am an engineer at OpenAI, working on networking and systems for machine learning. I'm broadly interested in computer systems, with a focus on high-speed networking. Earlier, I worked at Microsoft Research on softwarizing 5G radio processing. I received my PhD from CMU advised by Prof. David Andersen, concluding with eRPC.
