Summary
Diogo Aguiam is a research scientist and PI with nine years’ experience translating advanced physics and microwave instrumentation into applied micro‑ and nano‑technologies for manufacturing, automotive, aerospace and environmental monitoring. He holds a double PhD with distinction in Engineering/Physics, an electronics MSc with top honors, and led development and deployment of multichannel microwave reflectometry systems at Max‑Planck and IPFN. At INL he progressed from staff researcher to PI, securing over €6M in competitive funding, supervising a multi‑disciplinary team and publishing 30+ peer‑reviewed papers (h-index 14). He combines deep hands‑on skills in RF, MEMS/MOEMS, optics and embedded/data processing with systems integration experience across high‑throughput experiments and industrial R&D. A less obvious strength is his track record of scaling data pipelines and distributed processing for large diagnostic datasets (100+ GB and hundreds of cores), bridging lab prototypes to funded, industry‑relevant projects.
