Senior🎓
Top SchoolZiwei Qiu is a quantitative researcher based in Cambridge, MA with eight years of experience bridging experimental quantum physics and data-driven finance. After earning a PhD in Applied Physics from Harvard, Ziwei led pioneering NV-center sensing projects—developing an entanglement-based magnetic angle sensor and delivering the first scanning-probe nanoscale NV electric field imager used on van der Waals materials. Now at Susquehanna International Group, Ziwei applies rigorous experimental design, statistical modeling, and optimization insights to quantitative problems. A past participant in Creative Destruction Lab’s quantum bootcamp, Ziwei has hands-on experience benchmarking quantum and classical algorithms and mapping real-world problems to Ising/QUBO formulations. Colleagues describe Ziwei as someone who thrives on hard problems and translates deep physical intuition into practical algorithmic and trading solutions.
