Caire received his B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino in 1990, his M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Princeton University in 1992, and his Ph.D. from Politecnico di Torino in 1994. He was a post-doctoral research fellow with the European Space Agency (ESTEC) from 1994 to 1995. He has been an assistant professor in Telecommunications at the Politecnico di Torino from 1995 to 1997, an associate professor at the University of Parma from 1997 to 1998, and a full professor with the Department of Mobile Communications at the Eurecom Institute from 1998 to 2005. In 2005 he became a professor of electrical engineering with the Viterbi School of Engineering at the University of Southern California.[1] Since 2014 he is an Alexander von Humboldt Professor and head of the Chair of Communications and Information Theory at Technische Universität Berlin.[2] He is also working on practical applications at the Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications (Heinrich Hertz Institute). Since 2020 he is a Principal Scientist at the Berlin Institute for the Foundations of Learning and Data (BIFOLD).[3]
He served as associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Communications from 1998 to 2001 and as associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory from 2001 to 2003. He served on the Board of Governors of the IEEE Information Theory Society from 2004 to 2007, was an officer of the society from 2008 to 2013, and was president of the IEEE Information Theory Society in 2011.
