Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexey Paznikov is a Senior Research Fellow and PhD-level researcher with 11 years of experience building high-performance and concurrent systems, now based at the National University of Singapore. He specializes in performance engineering, compiler-driven code and data layout optimizations (LLVM/Clang), microarchitecture-aware vectorization, and scalable parallel/distributed algorithms for MPI and hybrid models. Alexey has a strong track record of practical research: developing LLVM transformation passes, MPI RMA collectives (rmacoll), and relaxed distributed data structures with public repositories demonstrating reproducible tools and results. His work bridges theory and practice—designing lock-free and relaxed concurrent structures, scalable locks via delegation, and mapping algorithms for geographically distributed clusters. He has supervised numerous students and led projects across academia and industry (including Huawei and Intel), combining deep profiling/instrumentation expertise with applied systems engineering. Less obvious: he repeatedly focuses on data layout as the cross-cutting lever to unlock performance across compilers, runtimes, and distributed-memory systems.
