PROFILE
Matthias J. Kannwischer
Over a two-month period, contributed to the pq-code-package/mldsa-native and mlkem-c-aarch64 repositories by developing memory- and performance-optimized cryptographic features and strengthening cross-platform CI pipelines. Work included implementing on-demand lazy unpacking and memory-efficient signature generation in C and Assembly, reducing RAM usage and stack footprint for large polynomial operations. Enhanced reliability through bug fixes addressing memory safety and linker warnings, and improved verification with CBMC and expanded benchmarking across ARM, RISC-V, and Mac platforms. Leveraged skills in low-level programming, CI/CD, and formal methods to deliver robust, portable code with improved maintainability, security, and performance validation across diverse environments.

Mar 1, 2026March 2026: Delivered targeted improvements across two PQ code packages, focusing on RAM efficiency, API stability, and CI reliability. Implemented on-demand lazy unpacking to reduce RAM usage in REDUCE_RAM mode, while preserving correctness. Fixed critical memory-safety bug in AArch64 polyz_unpack to prevent buffer overreads. Resolved public API exposure and GNU-stack linker warnings to improve portability and build cleanliness. Re-enabled CI benchmarking across multiple hardware platforms to strengthen performance validation. Business impact includes lower memory footprints for large polynomials, more robust cross-platform builds, and higher confidence in performance metrics.
