I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the School of Information Science and Technology at the ShanghaiTech University. I received my PhD degree from the Department of Computer Science of the North Carolina State University in 2021, advised by Prof. Xiaohui (Helen) Gu. Before that, I obtained my MPhil degree from Hong Kong Baptist University in 2016. I received my BS degree from Nanjing University in 2013.

My research interest lies in improving the reliability, availability, and security of large-scale software systems. I develop automated techniques for understanding, diagnosing, and addressing failures in complex software systems, leveraging program analysis, runtime observability, and AI-assisted approaches. My research aims to advance reliable and intelligent computing systems spanning cloud services, distributed systems, and emerging AI-enabled platforms.

Recruitment

I am looking for self-motivated PhD/MS students. Several Postdoc and RA positions are available. If you are interested in working with me, please feel free to drop me an email with your CV.
