Yifei Sun

I'm a MSCS student at Northeastern University, currently actively seeking for a PhD position. I have the fortune to be advised by Prof. Ji-Yong Shin at Systems Research Group. I visited Computing Software Group under Prof. Tomoharu Ugawa at University of Tokyo during the summer of 2024.

Before joining Khoury College of Computer Sciences, I obtained my bachelors from University of Utah for my thesis System and Methods to Determine ME/CFS & Long COVID Disease Severity Using Wearable Sensor & Survey Data under the guidance of Prof. Shad Roundy and co-advisor Prof. Tucker Hermans.

I'm generally interested in system and theory (CV), topics include:

• Formal verifications on distributed systems.
• Type theory and managed runtime systems.
• Reproducible build systems.

I ride a Trek Fuel EX 5 for fun and commute, and I daily-drive a Framework Laptop 13 with NixOS and a 14-inch MacBook Pro on the go. I own and operate AS10779 with two IP assignments from ARIN. I maintain 10+ packages on nixpkgs and actively contribute to the Nix ecosystem. During my free time, I enjoy swimming, cycling, archery, and playing osu! mania.
