Welcome to my corner of the internet. This website is a personal blog which I use as a platform to document my learning journey and showcase it for the world to see.
Inside Cranelift: How a Baseline JIT Compiler Optimizes WebAssembly for Production Workloads
Cranelift is the baseline JIT that powers Wasmtime and Fastly’s edge platform. Here is how it compiles WebAssembly quickly, what optimizations matter at the baseline tier, and where it fits next to LLVM and TurboFan.
Building a GGUF Parser and Dequantizer From Scratch: A Portfolio Project That Signals Real Systems Skill
Parse GGUF, dequantize Q4_0 and Q8_0 tensors, and load Llama weights into numpy. A hands-on guide to a side project that demonstrates real systems engineering on a CV.
Build a Speculative Decoding Sampler: A CV-Worthy Side Project
A complete, runnable Python project that pairs a draft n-gram model with a target LLM to verify multiple tokens per forward pass, plus a roadmap for turning it into production-flavored work.
Inside Redpanda: How a Kafka-Compatible Engine Replaces ZooKeeper for Streaming
A deep dive into Redpanda’s C++ core, the Raft-based controller quorum that replaces ZooKeeper, and what tradeoffs come with deleting a coordination service from your streaming stack.
Building Flash Attention from Scratch in Pure NumPy: A CV-Worthy Systems Project
Build flash attention from scratch in pure NumPy using tiling and the online softmax trick, then extend it toward production. A deep, runnable project that signals real systems engineering to hiring managers.
