Mihir Srivastava
Software Engineer at Amazon One Medical
Howdy! I'm Mihir, a software engineer at Amazon One Medical. Before that I was on the Prime Video team working on video player architecture, shipping features like client-side multiview to millions of devices.
I studied Linguistics & Computer Science at UCLA and did cybersecurity R&D at Sandia National Laboratories. My background across security, NLP, and systems has me increasingly focused on LLM security — prompt injection, adversarial robustness, and making AI systems harder to exploit.
Outside of work I enjoy learning instruments, doing calisthenics, playing sports, reading and shipping side projects.
