Faiz Palwala

ML/Software Engineer. 4+ yrs enterprise distributed systems (Deloitte, 23M+ scale), MSc Advanced Computer Science (AI) @ Leeds.

Open Source & Core Contributions:

  • PyTorch Core: Contributor to upstream PyTorch (torch.nn.functional.nll_loss MPS forward migration on Apple Silicon, merged into pytorch:main).
  • SFHQ-VirtualID: Synthetic identity-conditioned benchmark for machine unlearning (750 identity clusters, 75k portraits, CC0 seeds, Slurm HPC array, published with DOI).
  • serverless-github-calendar: Zero-runtime-dependency GitHub contribution heatmap via GitHub Actions.
  • msc-project-core-implementation: Dual-head ResNet-18 evaluation framework for identity-level unlearning baselines.

Building:

  • Breadwinner: Local-first, zero-hallucination career engineering studio & AST compiler in Textual. Deterministic verification, offline Ollama/LM Studio support, and headless Chromium ATS PDF generation.
  • MLX Ternary: High-performance Apple Silicon runtime for 1.58-bit ternary language models with hardware vector dot product operations (dot(half4, half4)) and Split-K parallelization.
  • GraphContext MCP: Structural AST and dependency graph engine for AI coding assistants (Proprietary commercial product).
