Hi there, I'm Andy Zhang (张夏) 👋

Microsoft Kubernetes CNCF

Principal Software Engineer at Microsoft, leading storage and AI infrastructure in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). Currently focusing on building AI/LLM inference infrastructure on Kubernetes. Maintainer of multiple CNCF projects including KAITO, NFS/SMB CSI drivers and Azure CSI drivers (Disk, File, Blob).

🚀 Open Source Projects I Maintain

🤖 AI / LLM Inference on Kubernetes

Project Role Description
KAITO Maintainer Automates LLM inference, fine-tuning & RAG deployment on Kubernetes with managed GPU provisioning — covers similar inference scenarios to Nvidia Dynamo and llm-d but as a Kubernetes-native operator
KEDA-KAITO Scaler Maintainer KEDA external scaler that autoscales KAITO inference workloads based on pending request metrics
