Tommaso Rodani
Research Technologist
I am a Research Technologist and Data Engineer at AREA Science Park, where I work on advanced data infrastructures and AI services for scientific research. My background combines data science, machine learning, FAIR data management and HPC/cloud technologies. I develop scalable workflows and services for the ORFEO HPC ecosystem, including model serving, LLM/RAG applications and AI-augmented tools for research infrastructures. My work aims to make scientific data and AI services more interoperable, reproducible and usable by research communities, laboratories and industry.
