Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFrancesco Giordano is a Data Science & Engineering Manager with 11 years of experience blending physics-grade research and practical ML/engineering delivery across CERN and luxury retail. He built production Python libraries at CERN for power-loss and temperature analysis and developed a 96%+ precision ML model now used in LHC operations, demonstrating his ability to turn research into operational systems. At Van Cleef & Arpels he led data engineering and ML teams to modernize retail analytics, migrate pipelines to cloud, and automate reporting workflows used by senior management. He also contributes to open-source tooling and improved robustness of Microsoft Live Share’s Linux installer scripts, reflecting a DevOps-minded approach to reliability. Trained as an electrical engineer with a PhD in Information Technology, he pairs deep domain knowledge with hands-on coding and a persistent appetite for solving hard classification problems—often explored through Kaggle and weekend security research. Outside work he teaches catamaran sailing, an unexpected thread that mirrors his practical leadership and calm under pressure.
