Research Focus

As Head of Research at Algorix, I lead research initiatives in AI systems and backend engineering, focusing on practical implementations that bridge research and production. My work involves developing AI systems with PyTorch, building scalable backend architectures using TypeScript, Go, and Python, and optimizing system performance.

In parallel, I conduct research at POSTECH DBLab on GPU-accelerated graph database management systems. Since joining in July 2025, I've been exploring how parallel computing with CUDA can dramatically improve query performance for complex graph operations, bridging theoretical database design with practical system implementation.

Beyond research, I'm active in the security community through POSTECH PLUS and other hacking/security activities, which helps me maintain a holistic view of system design that considers both performance and security.
