About Me

Welcome to my personal website! My name is Hao He (何昊, the “He” is pronounced like “Her” without “r”). I am currently a Ph.D. student in Software Engineering at Carniegie Mellon University, advised by Bogdan Vasilescu and Christian Kästner. In the past, I am fortunate to have worked with Minghui Zhou at Peking University.

I am broadly interested in the empirical measurement of secure software development practices, particularly in the context of software supply chain security. I am devoted to bringing the strongest methodological rigor to empirical software engineering research—which often means adapting established methods from network science, econometrics, and even medicine. Through this, my research often help answer important (and non-intuitive) problems in the realm of software engineering and software supply chain security.
