Reshmi is a Senior Applied Scientist in Microsoft Search, Assistant and Intelligence – Microsoft Research (opens in new tab) leading the effort to research and productionize solutions for safeguarding CoPilots with enterprise-grade RAG and Agents, against jailbreaks. She is exploring the security risks associated with deploying Multimodal Large Language Models in production and the researching the brittleness of Generative AI solutions across a variety of user scenarios to ensure a sustainable and safe experience for every customer and organization around the globe, who are using Microsoft CoPilots. She collaborates cross-functionally, to define the product policy PoV and develop guidelines for evaluation mechanisms that follow socio-technical norms.

Previously, Reshmi was part selected to be part of an AI incubation program in the Office of Applied Research/Office of the CTO. During this time she served as a Tech Lead to drive teams towards bettering customer experience by integrating state-of-the-art machine learning capabilities in Microsoft products and services while working at the intersection of NLProc, human-centered AI, and Reinforcement Learning. She also ideated and helped build out the first set of M365 Copilots in early 2023.

Before joining Microsoft, she completed my doctorate degree at Carnegie Mellon University, researching novel deep-learning and Bayesian approaches for data augmentation methods to design resilient energy infrastructures that are adaptable to climate change, in collaboration with the University of Michigan and CMU Portugal.

Within Microsoft, Reshmi has spent time researching and building machine learning models that can help understand/predict enterprise user and consumer behavior to power intelligent service improvements (e.g., efficient search, information consumption) and commanding experiences (e.g., search, command prediction, task automation, etc.) before joining the task-force to deliver the first-of-its kind Generative AI solution.

She is a leading mentor and speaker at reputed NLP conferences and also leads research collaborations with universities (University of Massachusetts, Amherst & MIT CSAIL).
