Yuqi Xie | 谢雨齐

I am a Member of Technical Staff at OpenAI building physical AGI.

Previously, I was a Research Engineer at NVIDIA GEAR Lab, where I contributed to GR00T, EgoScale, DreamZero, and other projects with Jim Fan and Yuke Zhu.

I received my M.S. in Computer Science from UT Austin, advised by Yuke Zhu in the Robot Perception and Learning Lab. I hold bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science from the University of Michigan and Electrical and Computer Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Fun fact: I’m a die-hard Pokémon fan. You can play a few Pokémon mini games right here on my website!
