PROFILE

Neil Johari

Worked on enhancing memory management and reliability in C-based compression tools, focusing on both feature development and bug fixing. In the curl/curl repository, implemented custom memory allocator support for Zstd integration under static linking, enabling user-supplied memory functions for improved control in embedded environments. Later, contributed to facebook/zstd by resolving allocation bugs, strengthening batch file processing, and cleaning up debug artifacts to improve maintainability. Utilized C programming and Bash scripting to address issues related to memory allocation, file handling, and software maintenance. The work emphasized robust debugging practices and targeted improvements for stability, performance, and long-term code quality.
