Compiler Optimization Passes

Knows classic compiler optimizations: constant folding, DCE, CSE. Understands when optimizations are correct and safe. Can read and compare optimized IR.

Understands the fundamentals of Compiler Optimization Passes. Applies basic practices in daily work. Follows recommendations from the team and documentation.

Implements optimization passes: function inlining, loop unrolling, vectorization hints. Uses dominators, loop analysis and alias analysis. Measures impact of passes on code size and performance.

Independently implements Compiler Optimization Passes. Works with IR and optimizations. Writes compiler tests.

Designs complex optimization passes: auto-vectorization, loop fusion, interprocedural analysis. Implements alias analysis for unsafe transformations. Diagnoses regressions from passes.

Designs compiler passes and optimizations with Compiler Optimization Passes. Works with type systems. Mentors the team.

Defines strategy and order of the optimization pipeline for the compiler. Manages balance between compilation time and code quality. Makes decisions about optimization aggressiveness.

Defines compiler architecture. Establishes development standards. Coordinates the compiler team.

Shapes optimization roadmap for the compiler platform. Researches ML application for compiler optimization (autotuning heuristics). Publishes on novel optimization techniques.

Defines compiler/language development strategy. Designs core language features. Establishes technology vision.
