  • Prototype distributed training solutions and integrated AI pipelines using Huawei’s MindSpore and Ascend AI ecosystems.

  • Publish research in top-tier ML and science venues (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, JHEP, PRD) and contribute to Huawei’s internal IP and R&D assets.

  • Mentor junior researchers and contribute to long-term strategic planning of Huawei’s AI4Sci + Compute Infrastructure initiatives.
