Note: I plan to graduate in 2025 and I'm mainly looking for the AI Infra Engineer (especially related to the acceleration of Inference or/and Training), Machine Learning Engineering/Researcher, Data Scientist and Quantitative Researcher/Trader opportunities. If you have fantastic PostDoc or finance (like PEVC) opportunities, I'm also glad to have a try.

If you have any suitable positions, please contact me. My resume can be found here.

I’m a final-year PhD student under the supervision of Dr. XU Weitao in the Department of Computer Science, City University of Hong Kong. I’m a member of Smart Sensing and Mobile Computing Lab (S2MC). I also work closely with Dr. SONG Linqi (CS in CityU).

Now, I am a Technology Investment Analyst Intern in the Huawei Corporate Development Department (Hubble Technology Investment). I also previously worked as an intern in one hedge fund and Huawei 2012 Labs.

My research interests include distributed machine learning (systems), distributed optimization methods. I focus on communication-efficient distributed and decentralized optimization (especially in Federated Learning).
