Moein Khazraee
I am a Senior Architect at NVIDIA, working on end-to-end systems for AI and heterogeneous computing, with a background in software and hardware co-design for networked systems. My work spans AI workload modeling, co-leading the architecture of the NIXL library, and network architecture for NVQLink. I also contribute to related system platforms such as the Holoscan Sensor Bridge (HSB).
Before NVIDIA, I was a postdoc at MIT CSAIL working with Manya Ghobadi. I received my PhD from UC San Diego in Spring 2020. My advisor was Aaron Schulman. I also worked with Michael Taylor during the first half of my PhD.
My background is in systems, networking, computer architecture, and software/hardware co-design. I continue to maintain selected academic projects and collaborate with research institutes and universities on related work.
You can also find my technical writing on the NVIDIA Technical Blog.
