Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuigi Calligaris is an Assistant Professor and experimental physicist with 11 years of experience designing FPGA, SoC and microcontroller firmware for low-noise quantum sensors and high-throughput trigger systems used in forefront experiments like CMS, FLASH, LiteBird and LSPE. He bridges deep particle-physics analysis and hands-on digital-electronics engineering—having delivered pipelined Hough-transform firmware and simulation tools for HL-LHC Phase-2 upgrades and led firmware for dark-matter and early-universe sensor readouts. Fluent in six languages and comfortable in multicultural, fast-paced labs across Europe and Brazil, he also teaches physics and mentors students on applied IoT solutions for viticulture. His toolkit spans VHDL, Embedded C, C/C++, Python, multivariate ML and statistical inference, enabling him to turn large, noisy datasets into low-latency, robust decision systems. A less obvious strength is his adaptability across domains: from trigger-level real-time processing at 40 MHz and 100 Tb/s bandwidths to precision low-noise sensor firmware for quantum measurements.
