Worked on the llm-d/llm-d repository to deliver four major features focused on enabling and optimizing AMD GPU support for machine learning inference. Over four months, implemented ROCm-compatible Dockerfiles, upgraded container images, and refined YAML-based deployment configurations to support models like Qwen3-32B and vLLM. Leveraged skills in containerization, DevOps, and GPU computing to enhance deployment reliability, resource utilization, and cross-hardware compatibility. Collaborated with teams from AMD, IBM, and Red Hat to validate changes and improve documentation. Used Dockerfile, YAML, and Python to modernize the ROCm ecosystem, streamline CI/CD workflows, and lay the groundwork for scalable, cost-effective deployments.
