My name is Tian Jin. Welcome to my homepage.

Bio and Interests

I am a 3rd year Ph.D. student at MIT advised by Michael Carbin and Jonathan Ragan-Kelley. I am interested in machine learning and programming systems.

Previously, I was a Research Engineer at IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center. I was the technical lead for enabling deep neural network model inference on IBM mainframe machines. I also contributed to the compiler support for IBM Summit Supercomputer, which was the most powerful supercomputer in the world in 2018. I was supervised by Kevin O'Brien.

I graduated from Haverford College in 2017 with a dual degree in Computer Science and Mathematics, advised by David Wonnacott and Curtis Greene.
