Huifang (Sophia) Wen is a senior software engineer of the hybrid cloud infrastructure team at the IBM T. J. Watson research center. She has over a decade of experience with software development, performance tuning and optimization in the High-Performance Computing (HPC) and commercial workload space. Her recent work has focused on enabling HPC on IBM Cloud and cloud-native environments like Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift. Her specialty spans from large-scale system software design/development, performance analysis/tooling and large-scale system design for HPC and AI applications.
Computers have never been more important to the world. At IBM Research, we’re designing new systems that provide flexible, secure computing environments — from bits to neurons and qubits. We’re working on innovations in hybrid cloud infrastructure, operating systems, and software. Our goal is to create technologies that improve performance, security, and ease of use across hybrid and multi-cloud computing. We want to enable clients to dynamically compose best-of-breed services and applications freely and frictionlessly across distributed computing environments and accelerate data-driven innovations.
