I am a researcher at Monash University, and currently working in the Qwen Team, Alibaba Group.
I spent some time at CSIRO's Data61, Sea AI Lab, ByteDance, and Amazon AWS AI.
I was a professional Clash of Clans player for
鲨王.
We're currently recruiting interns and FTEs to train Superhuman Cyber Agents. Reach out if you're interested!
My research focuses on Code Intelligence + X (e.g., agentic workflow, system efficiency, cybersecurity), and has been supported by Data61 PhD Scholarships, IBM PhD Fellowship Awards, Google Research Scholar Program, and DAAD AInet Fellowship.
Recent Works: BigCodeArena, Cyber-Zero, CTF-Dojo, PrivCode (NDSS 2026)
Recent Tutorials: NLP+Code: Code Intelligence in Language Models (EMNLP 2025)
Recent Services: EMNLP 2025 (Senior Area Chair, Session Chair), ACL 2026 (Senior Area Chair). Looking forward to your high-quality submissions!
I am open to collaboration on code intelligence. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in working together.

My Working Principles
- I typically work at least 10 hours a day, unless I decide to take a break.
- Choose wisely and commit wholeheartedly.
- Paper is cheap; they will be published eventually.
- I prioritize long-term research impact over quick wins in publications.
- Any upcoming research I lead will require significant effort and can often be split into multiple papers (though I choose not to).
- I am a generalist, always open to new opportunities, depending on my bandwidth.
Why Code Intelligence?
- Software is the backbone of all advanced technology, making code the bedrock of innovation. [1, 2, 3]
- Code's structured and executable nature allows for precise control and automation. [1, 4]
- Code is the most potent tool for AI to interact with and manipulate the world. [1]
- Code intelligence can dramatically enhance problem-solving capabilities across various domains. [1]
- Advancements in code intelligence lead to more efficient, secure, and scalable solutions. [5, 6, 7]
Fun Facts
- I speak Shanghainese, Mandarin, and English.
- I started my research in Quantum Computing, not AI.
- During my undergraduate years, I explored a wide range of NLP topics, including but not limited to: Commonsense Reasoning, Multimodal Learning, Machine Translation, and Semantic Parsing.
- In a previous life, I was a semiprofessional swimmer, training for 10 years.
- I'm an amateur pianist, playing for 8 years.
- Before high school, I had traveled to most European countries.
