PROFILE

Andrew Pullin

Over six months, contributed to core backend and compiler infrastructure across repositories such as pytorch/executorch and YosysHQ/yosys. Delivered features including LSTM decomposition for TOSA compatibility, SystemVerilog array assignment support, and modular Opus codec integration, using C++, Python, and CMake. Enhanced reliability by fixing quantized matrix multiplication and improving ABC9 flow stability, focusing on algorithm design and software testing. Addressed API compatibility and multiprocessing robustness in the Neutron backend, and expanded regression coverage for hardware synthesis flows. Work emphasized maintainability, modularity, and cross-repo integration, supporting deep learning, embedded systems, and hardware description language workflows in production environments.

April 2026 monthly summary for pytorch/executorch: Delivered a LSTM Decomposition Pass for TOSA compatibility on the ARM backend, enabling conversion of the aten.lstm.input into elementary operations that TOSA supports (matmul, sigmoid, tanh, mul, add, slice, cat). This work expands LSTM capability to multi-layer and bidirectional configurations, with support for with/without bias and batch_first, and reduces per-timestep gate computations, delivering measurable deployment flexibility and potential throughput improvements on TOSA-backed hardware.

February 2026 monthly summary for YosysHQ/yosys focusing on business value and technical achievements. Implemented ABC9 Flow Enhancements to improve loop stability and regression testing, addressing real-world issues observed in ABC9 flows. The changes preserve topological-loop assertions during SCC-based modifications, add a fallback mechanism to handle residual loops after SCC breaking, apply additional $__ABC9_SCC_BREAKER cuts on non-box loop cells, rebuild toposort, and re-check the existing assertions. Regression coverage is expanded with a regression test validating the non-box loop handling and preserving pre-ABC9 SCC tagging across all cell types.

April 2025: Opus Codec Library Integration for Modularity and Maintainability delivered for basedhardware/omi. Moved Opus codec into a dedicated library build, introduced a new CMakeLists.txt to organize the library sources and compile options, improving modularity, maintainability, and build flag management while reducing warnings from Opus code. This work lays groundwork for cross-module reuse and smoother CI.
