Yashwardhan Singh is a software engineer with 12 years of experience building and optimizing runtimes and AI-focused software, currently on the engineering team at Apple after roles at Meta and Intel Labs. He helped design NxCore and contributed to the open-source LAVA API for programming and simulating Intel’s neuromorphic research chip, blending low-level C/C++ runtime work with high-level Python APIs. Earlier work as a Runtime Compiler Engineer drove measurable Python performance gains (including a merged PGO patch) and demonstrated speedups on real-world benchmarks like OpenStack and Django. Comfortable across hardware-adjacent domains and research software, he has also refactored core runtime services for notable neuromorphic projects such as lava-nc/lava. Based in California, he pairs academic training from UW–Madison with a pragmatic, research-to-production mindset and a penchant for tackling niche performance challenges.
