Summary
Marco D'amico is a freelance Computer Scientist and Engineer with a PhD in Computer Architecture and a decade of experience in HPC research, dynamic resource management, and energy-aware scheduling from roles at Barcelona Supercomputing Center and collaborations like the Human Brain Project and DEEP-EST. He combines deep systems expertise—malleable job scheduling, SLURM integration, and power/performance models—with practical R&D experience including Intel hardware design for sparse neural networks and current work on dynamic power and cooling control in the DYMAN project. As a teacher and mentor since 2021 he tutors across languages (English, Spanish, Italian) in systems, programming and parallel computing, using teaching to refine his own practice. A published conference and journal author and journal reviewer, he pairs rigorous research habits with a lifelong practice of zazen and martial arts—time spent in a Japanese zen temple and training with top aikido and Wudang teachers informs his calm, systems-thinking approach. Now based in Barcelona, he is available for freelance projects that bridge research-grade HPC systems and practical engineering.
