• At CEA Paris-Saclay, a leading global research center, I contributed to the DSCIN team in the LECA laboratory, specializing in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and hardware design, with a focus on advancing machine.
• Developed LLM-based systems using QEMU to automate hardware architecture code generation in collaboration with the hardware design team.
• Created a Python package using PyTorch and Transformers to benchmark multiple LLMs (Llama 3.1, Gemma 2, Codestral), managing over 1,000 daily tests on a GPU cluster.
• Improved model performance through in-context learning and chain-of-thought prompting, boosting accuracy by 61%.
• Launched an internal initiative to facilitate error handling by building a compilation error clustering tool.
• Co-authoring a publication (in preparation) to present our evaluation methodology and results.
