Over seven months, contributed to advanced GPU-accelerated deep learning infrastructure across multiple sgLang and FlashInfer repositories. Focused on optimizing Mixture-of-Experts routing, kernel fusion, and memory safety, the work included refactoring Triton and CUDA kernels, integrating FP8 quantization, and implementing waterfill-based load balancing for distributed systems. Addressed memory access bugs and improved inference throughput by fusing kernels and reducing CPU-GPU overhead. Enhanced model stability and routing efficiency through robust expert dispatch mechanisms and targeted unit testing. Leveraged C++, Python, and PyTorch to deliver scalable, production-ready features, demonstrating depth in low-level optimization, distributed systems, and collaborative cross-repository development.
May 2026: Delivered DeepEP Waterfill-based routing optimization and EPLB mapping fixes in the sgLang project, with targeted test coverage to ensure correctness and stability. The work focused on consolidating waterfill load balancing for shared dispatch, enabling Waterfill support in TopK/HashTopK, and refining shared expert fusion to reduce redundant computation, improving routing efficiency and latency. Additionally, EPLB mapping correctness was addressed with a new test validating biased TopK mapping. Overall, these changes improve performance, reliability, and maintainability of the dispatch and routing subsystem.

March 2026: Two high-impact feature deliveries across sgLang and FlashInfer that improved inference performance and memory efficiency for modern GPU workloads. Implemented K-last SSM layout support for GDN prefill/decode, and introduced pool-indexed (zero-copy) state access for the GDN decode kernel, enabling efficient integration with SGLang's state pool. These changes reduce latency, boost throughput for linear-attention models, and strengthen production readiness for SGLang+FlashInfer deployments on Hopper-era GPUs.
