Worked on improving reliability and maintainability in complex C-based systems, focusing on the ROCm/ROCR-Runtime and qualcomm-linux/kernel-topics repositories. Addressed test instability by correcting header resolution in ROCm’s test utilities, which enhanced AMD GCN pathway testing and reduced CI flakiness. In kernel driver development, implemented robust validation and explicit error reporting for invalid AMD GPU user queue virtual addresses, ensuring the driver returned clear error codes and avoided unstable states. Leveraged skills in C programming, build systems, and kernel programming to deliver targeted bug fixes that improved both test infrastructure and driver stability, supporting more predictable development and production environments.
