Srushti aka Decoder Damsel - because if it's broken, I will find out why!
👩🎓 Finishing my MS at the University of Washington, Seattle (4.0 GPA, June 2026)
🔍 Currently extending Google's Vanir Security Scanner with Python vulnerability detection via Tree-Sitter → Google-sponsored capstone with the Android Security Team
🧠 Additionally, firing my neurons on open research problems in AI safety, conducting independent research:
🛠️ Built SpecTrace, a three-stage LLM pipeline that extracts normative rules from RFC specs, localizes code via grep + Tree-Sitter with zero LLM tokens, and runs scoped conformance checks using tool-use against a pre-built code index
🔬 Also poking at model internals: Qwen Refusal via Jacobian Lens, a mechanistic interpretability study using Anthropic's J-lens and Transluce's WeirdChat dataset to characterize what Qwen3.6-27B's residual stream actually contains at the moment of refusal
💼 Previously at Capgemini Engineering (formerly Altran/Aricent), 5 years building features, leading performance engineering, and solving critical security bugs on Cisco's enterprise voice platform
☕ Fueled by vanilla sweet cream cold brews, new cuisines, and digital journaling. Always down to chat over a meal!
