Thomas Schwinge

Software engineer, primarily working on GCC (GNU Compiler Collection), in particular adding support for OpenACC/OpenMP (directive-based parallel programming models) with code offloading to Nvidia GPUs (project started in 2013-06), and AMD GPUs. In 2018-09, appointed GCC/OpenACC maintainer, in 2023-07 appointed GCC/nvptx maintainer. Active member of the OpenACC Technical Committee.

Part of the team developing GCC/Rust: a GCC front end for the Rust programming language.

I also worked on glibc, GDB, binutils, etc., and had a brief look into the world of LLVM, but GCC etc. is still keeping me busy.

Employed by BayLibre.

Background in electrical engineering, focus on computer engineering, graduating from the Universität Stuttgart with a Diplom-Ingenieur (Dipl.-Ing., compare to M.Eng.) degree.
