I am Qin Liu, a software engineer at Moqi since 2017. Prior to that, I was a researcher at Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab. I earned my PhD in Computer Science from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), where I was supervised by Prof. John C.S. Lui. During my time at CUHK, I was part of the Advanced Networking and System Research Laboratory (ANSRLab). My Bachelor degree in Computer Science is from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and I was part of the ACM Honors Class there.
