I am Qiyang He (贺启旸), a Member of Technical Staff at Microsoft AI on the Agentic Coding RL Team. I build scalable infrastructure for coding reinforcement learning, turning real-world software engineering tasks and agent trajectories into reproducible, executable environments for training and evaluation.
I received my M.Sc. in Computer Science from Purdue University, where I was advised by Prof. Tiark Rompf. Before that, I earned a B.Eng. from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), advised by Prof. Bo Tang.
My interests span agentic coding systems, reinforcement learning and post-training infrastructure, database systems, and distributed systems. Previously, I was a Software Engineer on the Metadata Team at Snowflake, working on scalable metadata management for petabyte-scale analytical queries. I also interned at Cockroach Labs and Pinterest.
