Currently in Mountain View, CA

From Chantilly, VA

Hello! I’m Evan and I’m a software developer at AWS working on AWS HealthOmics. I graduated from Cornell in 2024 with an MEng in CS and a BS in CS and ECE. As an undergrad I worked with Adrian Sampson on compilers for hardware accelerators. I also TA’d for CS courses and was president of Cornell Data Science, a student-run project team on campus.

I’m broadly interested in hardware/software co-design at the intersection of compilers, programming languages, and computer architecture. Recently, I’ve thinking about how to use program synthesis to interactively create schedules for the FuseFlow compiler.

I’m always happy to chat! Feel free to reach out at evanwilliams@cmu.edu.
