Things I've done (I've put all these projects on my blog: https://maknee.github.io/blog/):

- Analyzed DeepSeek's distributed filesystem from the ground up in a multipart series

- Built a 100k+ (1TB+) RL dataset for a popular online MOBA game by reverse engineering data format (~50k -> ~100k downloads monthly on huggingface)

- Optimizing finetuning/RL on multi-node GPUs

- Built a framework that intercepts OpenGL pipelines and re‑renders them with NVIDIA ray tracing

I'm looking to work on optimizations and performance analysis of systems. This includes: building profiling tools, building and running large scale distributed systems (training, inference, vectordb, db, compilers, etc...), discussing napkin-math & identifying bottlenecks and writing about the work.
