Over six months, contributed to backend and data engineering projects across repositories such as trinodb/trino, crossoverJie/starrocks, and apache/doris-website. Delivered features like Iceberg orphan file cleanup in Java for starrocks, improving storage hygiene through snapshot-based file management. Enhanced SQL planner efficiency in trino by pruning empty union branches and expanded SQL introspection with DESCRIBE OUTPUT support for subqueries, involving parser and grammar updates. Addressed stability by implementing a Parquet page size guard and fixing null-safety issues, while strengthening test coverage for SQL outputs. Work emphasized Java, SQL, and distributed systems, with a disciplined approach to documentation, testing, and incremental delivery.
February 2026: Focused on stability and testing improvements for trinodb/trino. Addressed a potential NPE in DescribeOutputRewrite by enforcing non-null analyzerFactory, and expanded test coverage to validate SQL outputs for both prepared statements and inline queries. These changes reduce user-facing errors and strengthen regression protection, delivering measurable business value in reliability and quality assurance.

January 2026: Delivered DESCRIBE OUTPUT support for subqueries in trinodb/trino, expanding SQL introspection and query description capabilities. Implemented changes across grammar, parser, and related components. No major bug fixes recorded this month. Impact: improves schema discovery and tooling integration, reducing time-to-inspect query results for subqueries. Demonstrated skills in SQL grammar design, parser evolution, incremental feature delivery, and disciplined commit-based development.

In 2025-11, delivered a robust guard rail for Parquet IO in trinodb/trino to improve stability and reliability of large-file processing. Implemented a configurable maximum Parquet page size and a graceful failure path to prevent worker crashes caused by garbage collection when reading unusually large pages. This work reduces production outages and improves data throughput by avoiding problematic reads and surfacing clear errors for inputs that exceed the guard.

Month: 2025-08 — Focused on delivering a targeted optimization to the Trino SQL planner in trinodb/trino, yielding improved query performance for UNION-heavy workloads. Implemented a planner step to prune empty union branches after applying trivial filters, reducing plan size and execution overhead. The change is covered by tests validating correctness and guarding against regressions. The commit capturing this work is 26c2ee6c8aa40ac2898a3c6030077d0e7fc83281. No major bugs were fixed this month; the principal value comes from performance and resource efficiency gains in planning and execution. This work demonstrates strong expertise in planner internals, Java-based code changes, and a solid testing approach, reinforcing reliability and scalability for business-critical queries.

March 2025: Delivered Iceberg Orphan Files Cleanup for crossoverJie/starrocks. Implemented REMOVE_ORPHAN_FILES operation in IcebergTableOperation and added cleanup logic in IcebergAlterTableExecutor to remove files not referenced by any valid snapshot, with an optional older-than retention threshold. This reduces storage overhead and improves data hygiene with auditable retention rules. No critical bugs were fixed this month; changes include targeted tests and readiness for QA. Demonstrated skills in Iceberg metadata management, snapshot-based cleanup, and end-to-end change ownership.
