@ngangandungu
Software and systems engineer specializing in compilers, performance optimization, and systems-level debugging.
I am a motivated software and systems engineer with a strong foundation in computer science, compiler engineering, and performance optimization. I have hands-on experience in C and C++, and with compiler frameworks such as LLVM/Clang, GCC, and MLIR.
My work includes IR transformations, code generation, vectorization, link-time optimization, and systems-level debugging using tools like GDB, Valgrind, ASAN, and UBSAN. I have built projects including a Mini C compiler, a performance profiler for C programs, and an MLIR-based AI model code optimizer prototype.
I value reliability, correctness, and high performance; I enjoy applying compiler technology to accelerate AI, scientific computing, and large-scale applications while continuously learning and collaborating effectively.
