Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMicah White is a senior software engineer specializing in low-level systems, compilers, and high-performance computing, with four years of industry experience and an academic track record (MCS, 4.0 GPA) that underscores deep theoretical grounding. He has built everything from a query compiler with 20+ optimization passes and a distributed query engine to RISC-V accelerator simulators integrated with QEMU and a BLAS for custom hardware, demonstrating both algorithmic rigor and hardware-aware optimization. At companies like Katana Graph, Esperanto, and now Tenstorrent, he has repeatedly delivered large-performance wins (including 10x parallelization improvements) by combining metaprogramming, parallel primitives, and careful system design. Comfortable across C++, embedded Linux, simulators, and PCIe-integrated emulation, he thrives on bridging software and silicon. Outside of engineering, Micah brings people-focused energy and creative interests in music and faith that inform his collaborative, mentorship-oriented approach.
