Haozhi Qi is an applied scientist with 11 years of experience in computer vision and deep learning, currently working in the San Francisco Bay Area. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from UC Berkeley and has a strong research-to-production track record from internships and research roles at Microsoft and multiple visiting positions at Meta. Haozhi has hands-on expertise in instance segmentation and deformable convolutional networks, contributing to well-known open-source projects (FCIS, Deformable-ConvNets) where he fixed core bugs, added FPN support, and managed releases. His work helped win major object detection/segmentation challenges early in his career and he combines rigorous academic training with practical model deployment and maintenance skills. Colleagues would find him as comfortable debugging low-level convolutional implementations as iterating on system-level releases for production ML.
