Summary
Ziwei Qiu is a quantitative researcher who blends deep experimental physics expertise with data-driven trading analytics. Based in Cambridge, MA, he currently applies rigorous quantitative methods at Susquehanna International Group, where he has been shaping research since 2022. He earned a PhD from Harvard University, where he led two quantum-sensing projects with nitrogen-vacancy centers, including a novel magnetic-field-angle technique based on entanglement with a nuclear spin ancilla and the world’s first scanning-probe nanoscale electric-field imaging system. His academic path also includes studies at Peking University and international exchanges, reflecting a broad, cross-cultural engineering foundation. He has broadened his profile with a Creative Destruction Lab Quantum Bootcamp experience and extensive graduate research, making him adept at translating advanced physics concepts into practical quantitative models. Known for curiosity and hands-on leadership, he brings a rare combination of experimental rigor and financial-market applicability.
