I am Ziyue Qiu (邱子悦 in Chinese), a last-year PhD student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Greg Ganger and George Amvrosiadis. I am interested in storage systems, cloud computing and other system issues.

I expect to graduate in Fall 2027 and will be relocating to Zurich, Switzerland. I am looking for full-time industry or research positions there, as well as remote/hybrid roles. Feel free to reach out if you think I could be a good fit.

Previously, I was fortunate to work with Prof. Cheng Li at USTC, Prof. Xiaosong Ma at Qatar Computing Research Institute & HKBU, Dr. Qi Chen, Dr. Mao Yang at MSR-Asia.
