    I am a final-year CS undergrad at JNU (graduating 2027) looking for a Systems &#x2F; Rust Internship, possibly transitioning into a full-time role after graduation (June 2027).

    Recent work:

    - Redox OS (RSoC 2026): Re-architected the kernel CPU scheduler from Round-Robin to Interleaved DWRR and finally to EEVDF with per-core runqueues and dynamic work-stealing (782x fairness improvement, 82% latency reduction). Featured on Phoronix (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.phoronix.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;Redox-OS-Goes-EEVDF" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.phoronix.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;Redox-OS-Goes-EEVDF).

    - Rust &amp; ML Infrastructure: Implemented Depth Anything V3 monocular depth estimation in pure Rust using Burn; contributed foundational ONNX ops.

    - OS Internals &amp; Writing: Authoring low-level deep dives bridging academic OS theory to real-world microkernel code. Just launched the &quot;OSTEP &amp; Redox&quot; series: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;himwant.org&#x2F;series&#x2F;ostep--redox&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;himwant.org&#x2F;series&#x2F;ostep--redox&#x2F;

    I am primarily interested in teams working on low-level infrastructure, operating systems, hypervisors&#x2F;virtualization, database storage engines, or high-performance distributed systems. If your team is working on something interesting, even if technically adjacent, feel free to contact me!
