• Profiled the qclc compiler and designed an optimized lookup‑table mechanism for the OpenCL library to reduce linking time. This optimization achieved a 36% overall improvement in compilation runtime several cases.
• Surveyed and analyzed differences in the bootstrap library between 3.1 and 17, consolidating findings into multiple technical documents to support team knowledge sharing, ongoing maintenance, and future migration planning. Additionally, profiled binary size and analyzed bitcode formats, and proposed several actionable approaches to reduce the overall library size.
• Collaborated closely with QA and backend teams to investigate and resolve customer‑reported issues across multiple devices. Successfully identified a defect in the OCL kernel where incorrect local IDs were generated, improving functional correctness, platform stability, and customer confidence.
• Refactored the codebase to decouple dependencies on the HLCUtils and HLCCLUtils libraries, and resolved cyclic dependencies within a bootstrap library tool to enhance modularity and build robustness. Additionally, ported upstream LLVM changes related to APSIntPtr handling to improve memory safety and reduce build‑time warnings, resulting in cleaner, more maintainable builds.
• Leveraged perf to analyze the performance of the shader compiler, enabling deeper technical insights.
