Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFederico Stagni is a Staff Member at CERN with 16+ years of experience specializing in distributed and Grid systems, serving as LHCbDirac developer coordinator and longtime DIRAC core contributor. He combines deep Python backend and DevOps expertise with practical oversight of large-scale distributed computing operations for the LHCb experiment. His work includes hardening monitoring and job-processing infrastructure for DIRAC and improving job-management tooling such as Ganga, demonstrating a focus on reliability and test-driven development. A PhD-trained computer scientist and former university lecturer, he pairs academic rigor with hands-on production experience across European research centers. Less obvious: he has repeatedly taken roles that bridge development, operations and coordination, making him as comfortable writing integration tests and monitoring hooks as managing production reprocessing campaigns.
