PROFILE
Grayson Derossi
Grayson DeRossi contributed to the pytorch/pytorch repository by delivering backend improvements focused on GPU computing, deep learning, and numerical reliability. Over five months, Grayson migrated core linear algebra operations from MAGMA to cuSolver and cuBLAS, enhancing performance and reducing maintenance overhead. He implemented CUDA-specific fixes, such as stabilizing cuBLAS LtMatmul paths and re-enabling 64-bit depthwise convolution in cuDNN, while also improving test robustness for diverse hardware. Using C++, CUDA, and Python, Grayson addressed compatibility issues, optimized GPU workloads, and strengthened test infrastructure, demonstrating depth in debugging, benchmarking, and performance optimization across PyTorch’s CUDA backend and test suites.

Mar 1, 2026March 2026: Delivered a critical backend migration for Cholesky-related operations by deprecating MAGMA paths and migrating to cuSolver in PyTorch. This included removing MAGMA-based routes, updating tests to cuSolver-only, and introducing benchmarking to quantify performance improvements. The work reduces maintenance burden, improves reliability across CUDA backends, and positions Cholesky kernels for stronger performance in production workloads.
