Murat Guney is a Director of AI DevTech at NVIDIA with over a decade of experience optimizing deep learning and LLM workloads for modern GPUs. He blends low-level kernel tuning, mixed-precision techniques, and algorithmic redesign to lift performance across NLP, vision, recommender, and ASR systems. Earlier roles at NVIDIA and Intel MKL reflect deep expertise in high-performance computing, sparse/dense solvers, and computer architecture dating back to HPC research and a PhD in structural mechanics from Georgia Tech. Murat’s work spans creating novel APIs and quantized compute patterns as well as shipping production optimizations that bring applications closer to hardware peak. He leads engineering teams that translate research-grade numerical methods into deployable, efficient software, and is known for squeezing performance from both algorithmic and microarchitectural angles. Based in Portland, he combines academic rigor with hands-on GPU engineering to accelerate real-world AI deployments.
