Francesco Guarnera is a research fellow in computer vision and machine learning based in Catania with nine years of professional experience building web and data-driven applications. He combines academic research (PhD work and current research fellowship at Università di Catania) with hands-on development and administration of business systems, particularly in PHP/Laravel, SQL/MySQL and modern front-end stacks. Francesco has a track record of leading technical teams and IT operations, having served as IT Manager and Technical Director while designing web-based information systems. His background bridges rigorous academic training (laurea magistrale with honors) and practical product delivery, enabling translation of research into deployable applications. Comfortable across Python for ML and a broad legacy/web toolset, he often works at the intersection of database reliability and computer-vision model integration. A detail that sets him apart: he pairs research-driven CV/ML development with day-to-day responsibility for database administration, ensuring models are production-ready and data pipelines robust.
