Micah Weston is a Senior Software Engineer specializing in AI compilers with five years of hands-on experience building and optimizing compiler toolchains across CPU, GPU, and DSP targets. Currently at Microsoft, he moved up from Software Engineer II to his senior role while focusing on PGO, IR transformations, and improving compiler accuracy and upstream integration. His background includes production-facing compiler work at AMD and MediaTek, where he traced validation failures across ISA, IR, and hardware emulation and implemented novel algorithms for IR canonicalization. Micah also has deep embedded systems experience—doubling message rates and hardening real-time firmware for aerospace projects—and a habit of turning legacy codebases into maintainable, Dockerized CI pipelines. He holds MS and BS degrees from Northeastern and combines low-level systems intuition with a taste for building engaging web apps and tooling. Notably, he often bridges compiler research and practical deployment, shipping changes that flow upstream into evaluation binaries.
