Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Zambrotta is a compiler-focused software engineer and PhD candidate in computer science based in Seattle, with eight years of experience spanning compiler engineering at NVIDIA, capacity and performance modeling at Box, and materials-science research run on supercomputers. He blends systems-level performance optimization with tooling for cloud and on-prem resource management, having influenced hardware lifecycle and migration decisions through data-driven models. Ryan’s curiosity about programming language design began when a 3D-printer hack inadvertently produced a compiler back-end, and that maker spirit informs his pragmatic research and engineering approach. He is a committed mentor and mentee who invests in developer growth alongside technical contributions. Outside work he pursues guitar, backpacking, and skiing, and brings hands-on lab experience—from 3D printing flexible electronics to large-scale molecular simulations—that gives him an uncommon cross-disciplinary perspective.
