Worked on the facebook/zstd repository to enhance compression performance and reliability for RISC-V architectures. Developed RVV vectorization in C to accelerate ZSTD compression, introducing hardware-aware routines that improved throughput and reduced latency on RVV-enabled platforms. Improved cross-architecture stability by integrating Continuous Integration with automated testing for RISC-V vector extensions, and addressed a type-punning pointer dereference bug to ensure data integrity. Further strengthened system robustness by implementing compiler version checks and CI flags to stabilize test outcomes. Demonstrated expertise in low-level programming, CI/CD, and testing automation, delivering targeted optimizations and infrastructure improvements for high-performance, cross-platform data compression.
