I’m a compiler engineer at IBM working on the OpenJ9 Java Virtual Machine. I mostly work on the Testarossa optimizer that forms the just-in-time compiler of OpenJ9. The optimizer team is also responsible for the x86 and arm64 code generation backends so I occasionally dabble in those.
My interests are primarily in compiler optimization and managed runtimes. I’m also interested in programming language design and static analyses. I use this blog to write about projects I’m currently working on.
