About Me

I'm Haonan Su (苏浩南), a full-stack software engineer. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from Peking University in 2022 and am currently pursuing a master's degree at the University of Southern California. I am passionate about designing and developing user-friendly applications and have been dedicated to exploring and creating such programs.

Research

I interned at the Open Source Software Data Analytics Lab at Peking University, where I researched the impact of Good First Issues on newcomers on GitHub. I also contributed to the development of GFI-Bot, which helps newcomers find suitable Good First Issues to contribute to. Our work, titled "GFI-bot: Automated Good First Issue Recommendation," was published in the ESEC/FSE'22 Demo Track.

Working Experience

Sohu (2022.7 ~ 2024.7)

At Sohu, I conceived and developed numerous innovative projects at the forefront of technology, including:

• A service based on ComfyUI and Next.js for transforming real-time photos into specific styles.
• An application to analyze users' facial features and recommend makeup and outfits, with automatic virtual try-on functionality.
• A complete digital human video generation pipeline, building a full process from TTS to video generation, with further rendering of video or live streams in Puppeteer.
• The front-end and back-end development for Sohu Auto's WeChat Miniprogram (frontend using WeChat Miniprogram framework, backend using Go).

Tencent (2021.9 ~ 2022.5)

At Tencent, I participated in the development of Miaojian, a CapCut-like mobile video editing application. I developed the video saving and splitting modules and refactored the video timeline selection UI. Additionally, I designed and implemented a demo of a cross-platform Rust-based video editing SDK to achieve unified behaviors on both operating systems.

Projects

• Shuwashuwa: A WeChat Mini Program for volunteer services by students of the School of EECS at Peking University.
• The Nachos Operating System (PKU Operating Systems Course Lab): Implemented the Nachos Operating System with features like threads, mutexes, semaphores, pipes, virtual memory, and a Linux-like file system using C++.
• ICS Course Labs (PKU ICS / CMU 15-213 Labs): Completed and benchmarked various course labs, including an LRU cache simulator, a pipelined Y86-64 processor, a simple Unix shell, and a memory allocator.

Personal Interests

• I love traveling and photography. You can check out some of my work on my Instagram.
• Reading, currently interested in the history of Northern and Southern dynasties.
• Amateur in badminton & cycling.
