Top expert inHigh-Performance Machine Learning Computing
Marco Musich is a Staff Scientifico at CERN with 12 years of experience combining experimental particle physics and software engineering, focused on tracker alignment, calibration and data-quality monitoring for the CMS experiment. He holds a Ph.D. in Physics and has coordinated alignment and calibration efforts across multiple institutions, bridging hands-on detector commissioning with analysis for new-physics searches. Marco contributes to open-source CMS tooling—improving deployment, automation and DQM GUIs—bringing UI/UX improvements to complex monitoring systems and shaping configuration/approval workflows in cms-bot. His work uniquely blends expert-level detector knowledge (b-tagging, vertexing, pile-up mitigation) with pragmatic DevOps and visualization skills to make detector performance accessible to analysts. Based in Switzerland, he is adept at organizing international collaborations and translating detector subtleties into robust software and calibration pipelines. Colleagues rely on him for both technical depth in tracker systems and practical solutions that speed commissioning and quality assessment.

CMS DMWM Deployment
Role in this project:
Software Engineer (Focus on DQM Rendering and UI/UX for the CMS DMWM Deployment)
Software Engineer (Focus on DQM Rendering and UI/UX for the CMS DMWM Deployment)Contributions:1 review, 14 commits, 21 PRs in 5 years 6 months
Contributions summary:Marco primarily contributes to the DQM (Data Quality Monitoring) GUI within the CMS DMWM deployment repository. Their work involves creating and modifying render plugins and layouts, enhancing the visualization of data, specifically for pixel alignment, SiStrip gains, and tracker phase-2 plots. They are responsible for adapting the GUI for various data structures and incorporating style improvements, including color scales and layout adjustments. This suggests a strong focus on improving the user experience and the visual clarity of the data presented within the DQM system.
