**Join Us for the next Israel LLVM Meetup!** We’re thrilled to invite you to an exciting evening, where we’ll dive deep into cutting-edge compiler technologies and hardware-aware optimizations. This meetup brings together the LLVM community for insightful talks, networking, and discussions on the future of compiler infrastructure. Expect a diverse lineup of sessions covering Triton, MLIR, and LLVM optimizations powered by hardware metrics — perfect for compiler developers, performance engineers, and anyone passionate about high-performance computing. 📅 **Date & Time** **February 18th, 2026** • **17:00** – Arrival & Networking • **17:30** – Talks Begin • **19:00** – Wrap-up 📍 **Venue** [Jem’s Hertzliya](https://share.google/5taousLhsVfY7ox0r) 🎤 **Speakers & Topics** **• Jonathan Cohen - Compiler Engineering Manager - Apple** Title: “Supercharging Compiler Optimization Remarks with Hardware Metrics” Abstract: This session demonstrates how to turn hardware counters with compiler optimization remarks into performance wins. It combines performance analysis metrics with enriched Optimization Remarks to debug and mitigate performance bottlenecks - a challenging task for compiler developers or performance engineers. **• Michael Zuckerman - AI SW Engineering Manager – Majestic Labs AI** Title: “Triton for RISC-V: Bridging PyTorch to RISCV with MLIR & LLVM” Abstract: Triton is a powerful open-source programming model originally developed to generate highly optimized GPU kernels for deep learning workloads. In this talk, I present an extension of Triton to target the RISC-V vector architecture, using MLIR and the LLVM toolchain as the compilation backbone. This work creates a practical bridge between modern PyTorch-based machine learning frameworks and emerging RISC-V hardware platforms, enabling efficient and portable execution of AI workloads beyond traditional GPUs. The proposed integration allows PyTorch models to be lowered end-to-end into RISC-V vector instructions, leveraging open compiler infrastructure to significantly reduce the effort required to enable new hardware targets. I will show how Triton kernels, TorchDynamo graph capture, TorchInductor scheduling, and MLIR/LLVM code generation were aligned into a unified backend that supports rapid bring-up, iterative optimization, and transparent performance tuning. This talk demonstrates how an open, modular compiler stack can accelerate the adoption of flexible hardware architectures in machine learning, while preserving high performance and developer productivity.

Join us for a Sunday morning inspired by the teachings of Eckhart Tolle as we collectively explore the pathless path to spiritual awakening and enlightenment. This gathering is designed for those seeking inner peace and life transformation through inquiry into the nature of reality and consciousness. Come connect with like-minded individuals from the DMV area and embark on an experiential journey of discovery of who we really are. Doors open at 10:30 AM for 30 minutes of unguided silent meditation followed by a short Eckhart Tolle video, time to share, and a potluck lunch to connect even more. If you plan to stay for lunch please bring a healthy, vegetarian dish to share. We will finish at approximately 1:00-1:30 PM.

We will be meeting at Starbucks to learn together. Come with an online class you're already going through or an interest and we will try to connect you with a course where you can learn it. Already have a skill you want to contribute to a Kaggle Datascience competition? We will work on these too! Laptop required :)
