I'm a compiler engineer working on NPU compiler infrastructure — MLIR-based pipelines that take neural network graphs from ONNX down to silicon.

I write about compilers, systems, and hardware at the boundary where software meets physics. Mostly to understand things deeply. If it helps you too, that's a bonus.
