Join Team?

For Fall 2027, I am looking to recruit for two positions: (1) PhD student to work on the theoretical and algorithmic foundations of LLM Post-Training (2) MSc student to work on the intersection of ML and Operations Research. The MSc position will be based at SFU and co-supervised with Prof. Vibhuti Dhingra at Schulich School of Businees, York University.

If you are a graduate student at SFU, and are interested in working with me on the above topics, feel free to send me an email.

If you are applying to graduate school at SFU, and are interested in working with me, please apply at SFU CS and mention my name in your application. I make sure to go through all graduate applications. Typically, emailing me beforehand does not improve your chances of admission. If you do email me, please (i) include your CV and (ii) describe your previous research experience relevant to these topics.

Unfortunately, I do not have current openings for postdocs or undergraduate students.
