Summary
Luis Arnaldi is a Principal Engineer with over a decade of experience in R&D for high-energy particle detectors, telecommunications and FPGA-based instrumentation, currently contributing to Fermilab’s QICK system. He combines deep hands-on expertise in photomultiplier tubes, fast readout electronics and programmable logic with academic experience as an assistant professor and doctoral-level research from Instituto Balseiro. His recent work spans CMB-S4 and Athena instrumentation, translating complex experimental requirements into robust hardware and firmware solutions. Based in San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina, he is comfortable bridging laboratory physics and production-ready engineering, often turning experimental prototypes into fieldable systems. An understated strength is his long track record of mentoring students and writing procedural documentation that standardizes quality across multi-institution projects.
