Worked on distributed training enhancements for diffusion transformers in the ROCm/Megatron-LM repository, focusing on improving gradient synchronization for conditional embedding layers. Developed functionality to synchronize gradients across both pipeline and virtual pipeline parallel ranks, ensuring that parameters for timestep, FPS, and label embedders remained consistent across distributed model replicas. This approach reduced parameter divergence and enabled more stable, scalable training in large-scale deep learning systems. The implementation leveraged PyTorch and C++ for model parallelism and distributed systems, and included comprehensive unit tests to validate gradient synchronization correctness, reflecting a deep understanding of distributed training challenges and embedding consistency requirements.
