Transform and optimize the computational-graph representation of neural network models, and develop machine learning primitives in mathematical and kernel libraries.
Profile inference workloads to identify performance bottlenecks across the stack, quantify them, and propose and drive solutions together with the individual component teams that own each layer.
Optimize code for a range of computing hardware backends, adapting implementations to the memory hierarchy, instruction set, and execution model of each target.
Build and extend unit tests, correctness checks, and performance regression coverage so that framework and kernel work stays reliable as upstream moves.
Collaborate with framework, compiler, and machine learning engineers across global teams, and engage with the open-source community through code review and technical discussion.
