Business analytics, semiconductor data, and physics-trained judgment

Fabrizio Miano

I am a Business Analytics Manager at STMicroelectronics, based in Catania. My work combines data products, governance, BI architecture, and the analytical discipline I built in experimental physics and CERN research.

About

A data leader shaped by research, delivery, and real business constraints.

I started from physics, where evidence matters and complexity is normal. Years in the ATLAS/CERN environment taught me to reason carefully, communicate uncertainty, and build analysis that can survive scrutiny.

Over time I moved closer to business: consulting, data governance, BI platforms, and now semiconductor sales and marketing analytics. I still like the technical depth, but I care most about whether a decision becomes clearer, faster, and more defensible.

Career Story

From academia to business impact, without losing the academic roots.

My path is not a straight line, and that is part of the value. I can speak with researchers, engineers, data teams, sales stakeholders, and executives because I have had to translate across those worlds myself.

Selected Work

What I tend to make better

These are the kinds of problems I have repeatedly been trusted to clarify and move forward.

BI architecture for sales organizations

Led the design and delivery of a dedicated Americas sales analytics architecture, improving reporting reliability and making sales performance easier to read across Americas.

Governance that reaches execution

Translated business-led data quality requirements into automated detection, remediation, and governance rules.

Data in semiconductor context

Work close to sales and operations in a sector where timing, reliability, and shared definitions matter.

Translation across functions

Bridge technical and non-technical teams, aligning metrics across regions, divisions, and data functions.

Business & Technical Fluency

The useful part is the bridge: business ownership with enough technical depth to make things real.

Talks & Research

Public communication is part of the work.

I value the ability to explain complex transitions and technical subjects in a way people can use.

Selected research

Ph.D. thesis on data-driven background estimation in searches for supersymmetric top partners with the ATLAS Detector at the LHC, plus ATLAS publications on trigger performance, stop searches, and dark matter associated with heavy quarks.
