About Akshay Nalwaya
As a Software Development Engineer II at Amazon Web Services (AWS), I focus on developing and scaling machine learning systems and developer tooling for the AWS Neuron training and inference stack. My contributions include compiler and runtime optimizations, debugging frameworks, and production infrastructure improvements, which have enhanced model deployment efficiency and reduced latency. With over six years of combined experience in software engineering and machine learning, I have contributed to backend and ML platform capabilities, driving automation, infrastructure efficiency, and productivity improvements. My work is rooted in leveraging skills in Python, Java, deep learning, and data science to deliver impactful solutions that streamline workflows and enhance system reliability.
Experience
Software Engineer
Aug 2024 — Present · Seattle, WA, US
I build and scale ML systems and developer tooling for AWS Neuron’s training and inference stack. My work spans compiler and runtime optimizations, configuration and debugging frameworks, and production infrastructure enhancements that reduce model bring-up and deployment friction for internal teams and customers. I have delivered significant reductions in compilation and tracing overhead through targeted metadata extraction and by eliminating redundant graph work. Improved inference latency by 10–15% via system-level optimizations, and reduced end-to-end model trace time by ~10–15% by introducing an HLO-keyed compiled-artifact caching layer. I also focus on engineering productivity and reliability by building automation and testing workflows that raise coverage and reduce manual effort, while partnering cross-functionally to ship scalable solutions for latest multi-modal architectures.
