Kahila Mokhtari Jadid

Kahila Mokhtari Jadid is a Senior ML Engineer at Red Hat (started 01/01/ 2026), where she focuses on testing, benchmarking, and performance validation for LLM inference systems. Her work involves profiling and evaluating inference performance across frameworks like vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, and SGLang on NVIDIA GPU clusters -- measuring metrics such as time-to-first-token, inter-token latency, throughput, and KV-cache utilization to identify bottlenecks and drive optimization decisions. She is a core contributor to llm-d (CNCF Sandbox), building performance validation frameworks and benchmarking infrastructure for distributed inference serving.
