Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolYanming Lai is a software engineer specializing in GPU infrastructure with 11 years of experience building high-performance and research-driven systems. Currently at Zhejiang Lab, he transitioned from HPC engineering to focus on GPU stacks and orchestration for large-scale compute since 2022. His background includes research roles at Duke Kunshan and implementation of adversarial ML techniques during an internship at the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, where he built MalGAN to probe black-box malware detectors. A Duke University MS in Computer Science and a BS in Computer Engineering from George Washington University anchor his blend of academic rigor and production experience. Based in Durham, NC, he bridges cutting-edge research and practical infrastructure, often working where model-driven experimentation meets cluster-level optimization. Colleagues describe him as analytically curious, equally comfortable diving into low-level performance tweaks or prototyping novel ML adversarial approaches.
