Yuqun Zhang's main research interests lie in Software Engineering, and its synergy with Machine Learning and Programming Languages. He has published over 50 research papers, winning two ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished Paper Awards (ISSTA 2019 & ICSE 2025). His research has helped detect hundreds of bugs for open-source projects from Apache and GitHub, as well as commercial products from Alipay and Kwai where his work on code generation, fuzzing, taint analysis, and program analysis has been successfully deployed with million lines of code and over 1 billion global users. He has also been extensively working on developing theories and techniques for artificial intelligence, e.g., Large Language Models, and applying them on software engineering research.

We are hiring research assistant professors and PostDocs. We are also looking for PhD students with strong academic background in Software Engineering, Large Language Models, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Programming Languages, or Formal Methods. Please send me an email (with your CV).
