• Served as a core contributor to the "Adaptive Block Caching" engine, optimizing how large-scale data blocks are cached to significantly reduce network latency and server I/O overhead.
• Architected validation frameworks to ensure data correctness during high-speed uploads/downloads, implementing automated checks to prevent file corruption in critical data paths.
• Improved file REST upload performance by debugging critical slow paths using Kibana , log tracing, and system profiling. Optimized the upload pipeline by chunking large files and implementing multithreaded upload routines in Go , resulting in a 10x+ speedup in large file uploads.
• Debugged and resolved SMB protocol-level performance issues , improving file save operations from 20+ minutes to 1 minute , using tools like Wireshark, core dumps, and SMB oplock tuning.
• Built system-level features in C , using Linux Kernel APIs and Win32 APIs for file system caching and sparse file handling on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
