Portrait of Vivek Mathur

Vivek Mathur

Research Fellow at M365 Research and Microsoft Research India

About

I am a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research India, where I specialize in the scalability and trust of Large Language Model (LLM) inference systems. My primary research involves developing agentic LLM scheduling strategies to manage complex, multi-round tool-calling workflows.

Prior to joining Microsoft, I held several key positions in the industry:

  • Salesforce Einstein: Engineered real-time anomaly detection for the Einstein Trust Layer using Spark and reinforcement learning.

  • Tower Research Capital: Developed a multi-agentic LLM chat platform for code comprehension and a RAG-enhanced pipeline for quantitative trading signals.

  • IBM Research: Focused on large-scale multi-modal modeling and ESG analytics using Granite time-series models.

I hold a B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering from IIIT Hyderabad and am currently continuing my research there as an MS (Research) candidate. My academic honors include being named a KVPY Fellow and appearing on the Dean’s List (top 5% of my batch). Beyond systems research, I am passionate about using AI for social good, as seen in my work on “UnSight,” a platform designed to bridge the educational gap for visually impaired learners.
