PROFILE

Angel Yang

Worked on the pytorch/torchrec and pytorch/FBGEMM repositories, delivering features and stability improvements for large-scale machine learning systems. Built an Embedding Sharding Stability and Planning API to enhance compatibility and robustness in Torchrec, and introduced a Fused Metrics Computation Mode that accelerates metrics processing by fusing state and task tensors with safeguards for tensor compatibility. Addressed deployment issues by aligning optimizer configurations for non-Ads PyPer models and fixed device type mismatches in UVM tensor creation for GPU workflows. Leveraged Python, PyTorch, and GPU programming, focusing on API design, error handling, performance optimization, and backward compatibility across distributed systems.

Work History

December 2025

1 Commits

Dec 1, 2025

December 2025 monthly summary for pytorch/FBGEMM: Focused on stabilizing UVM tensor handling and GPU workflows. Delivered a critical bug fix to resolve device type mismatch during UVM tensor creation, improving checkpoint loading and runtime stability for GPU operations. The change reduces cross-device errors and enhances reliability of UVM-based pipelines.

April 2025 monthly summary for pytorch/torchrec focused on feature delivery and stability improvements in metrics computation for large models. Delivered a new Fused Metrics Computation Mode that fuses state tensors with task tensors to accelerate metrics computation, with compatibility safeguards for non-1D tensors. Implemented a backward compatibility fix for the fused states path to prevent regressions and added thorough guardrails to surface warnings/errors for incompatible tensor shapes (2D/List state tensors) in fused mode. These changes reduce runtime overhead (fewer gathers) and improve reliability when scaling to large recommender models.

December 2024 monthly summary for pytorch/torchrec: Focused on stabilizing deployment for non-Ads PyPer workloads by aligning the optimizer configuration with the Torchrec sharder. Delivered a targeted fix to the optimizer path to ensure non-Ads PyPer models do not use Adagrad and that the optimizer type is corrected from KeyedOptimizer to CombinedOptimizer to match the TTK sharder. This reduced runtime errors and improved reliability for Torchrec-enabled deployments.

October 2024 monthly summary focusing on feature delivery and platform robustness for the Torchrec repository. Key features delivered: Implemented Embedding Sharding Stability and Planning API for Torchrec, introducing stable classes for embedding sharding and planning to improve compatibility with existing APIs and increase robustness of the Torchrec framework. Commits associated with this feature include ebd92d52b56525220737716d4d11405dfd3d4c77 (Torchrec planner schema API check (#2420)). Major bugs fixed: No major bug fixes reported in this period; focus remained on feature stability and API consistency. Overall impact and accomplishments: The new stability and planning API enhances reliability, enables safer scaling of embeddings, and improves API compatibility within Torchrec, paving the way for future enhancements and broader adoption. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Python, Torchrec framework, embedding sharding concepts, API design and stability, code reviews and commit-based validation, integration with existing Torchrec APIs.
