About

I'm Altan Haan, a second year PhD student in the EECS department at UC Berkeley, advised by Alvin Cheung. I am affiliated with the Sky Lab. My research interests lie somewhere between programming languages, compilers, optimization, and parallel computing. Currently, I am investigating the intersection of database theory, systems, and the (parallel) scaling of computations over sparse and irregular data.

Previously, I was a Senior Software Engineer at OctoML, where I worked on the Apache TVM deep learning compiler. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Washington in 2020, where I was advised by the great Zachary Tatlock.

About this site

This site was built with Pelican, mostly because Python is all I write these days (other than C++). The theme is tufte-css with very slight modifications. Math is rendered with MathJax.
