Welcome

I’m Tavian, a software developer interested in low-level, high-performance software across many domains. Currently a Staff Engineer at Shopify, I’ve previously worked at the University of Waterloo, Microsoft Research Montreal, a startup called Maluuba, and the University of Calgary.

Check out some of the projects I’m working on, or read some of the highlights from my blog (the full archive is in the sidebar):

• Sneaky git commits ← new post
• Ray/Bounding Box Intersections
• A quick trick for faster naïve matrix multiplication
• Exact Bounding Boxes for Spheres/Ellipsoids
