Zheng Guo is a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan and a Schmidt Research Fellow focused on accelerating computational science discoveries using AI. With a PhD in Computer Science from UC San Diego and a decade of experience spanning research and industry, he blends rigorous academic methods with practical software engineering from internships at Google, MathWorks, and Microsoft. His work sits at the intersection of program transformation, compiler design, and scientific AI—leveraging compiler and HLS experience to speed up simulations and discovery workflows. At Michigan he collaborates with Dr. Xinyu Wang and Dr. Brian Kiedrowski to translate research prototypes into tools that materially shorten scientific compute cycles. Colleagues describe him as someone who pairs deep technical breadth with an eye for pragmatic optimization, often finding simple system-level levers that yield outsized performance gains.
