About
Hello! My name is Micah Weston and I use they/she pronouns. I am a compiler engineer at Microsoft working on AI accelerators.
In 2024, I graduated from Northeastern University with a Master of Science in Computer Science. The prior year, I graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Engineering and Computer Science from Northeastern University. During my time in college, I contributed code to a Multi-GPU simulator used for research. This opportunity was possible through the mentoring I received from grad students of the NU Computer Architecture Research Lab.
On top of research, I’ve started contributing to LLVM with occasional patches, such as machine instruction combine in the AArch64 backend . I love system programming, computer architecture, and other low-level details surrounding compilers.
When I have the time, I love playing and competing at local pinball arcades, practicing electric guitar and bass, reading non-fiction books, and analyzing code generation on Godbolt's Compiler Explorer.
