Arya (Zixuan) Wu

I’m a second-year PhD student at Northeastern University, advised by Prof. Arjun Guha. I’m also fortunate to collaborate with Prof. Carolyn Anderson at Wellesley College, where I completed my undergrad.

My research focuses on large language models for code generation and agentic programming. I work on training and evaluating these models across a range of software tasks and programming languages, with the goal of deploying them safely. I draw on insights from agent security, mechanistic interpretability, and human-agent interaction.

I am currently looking for Research Intern positions for Summer 2027. You can find my CV here.
