# Simran Gambani > Software Engineer @ Ampere Computing | Computer Science @ UC Irvine | Ex-Software Engineer at JPMorganChase Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/simrangambani At Ampere Computing, I develop frameworks to benchmark performance of cloud-native applications and large language model (LLM) workloads in distributed environments. My work focuses on evaluating and scaling performance on cloud infrastructures powered by Ampere ARM-based CPUs. I'm solving problems at the intersection of software, infrastructure and hardware - pushing the limits of cloud compute! Prior to pursuing masters at UC Irvine, I spent three years at JPMorgan Chase, building data-intensive supervisory and risk management platforms for the Investment Banking division. I built systems that processed large-scale banking controls data, strengthening my foundation in backend development and distributed data workflows. My journey from financial software systems to CPU performance engineering has given me a unique cross-stack perspective - from software development, cloud architecture, to CPU architecture. My interests lie in performance optimization, LLM inferencing, distributed systems, and data-intensive applications! I aim to engineer efficient, performant computing solutions that sustainably power today’s data and AI workloads. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer - Platform Applications @ Ampere Jan 2024 – Present | Santa Clara, California, United States Ampere is a modern semiconductor company, innovating in the cloud-native processors space.
