What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a dynamic team that values innovation and collaboration, where I can apply my research background and technical skills to solve real-world challenges.

With over 12 years of experience in telecommunication network research, I have developed a strong expertise in network optimization theory, cognitive radio, and software-defined networking (SDN). As a core member of the Network Implementation Testbed Lab at the University of Thessaly, I have been instrumental in setting up and administering a remotely accessible testbed.

In addition to my research work, I have served as a teaching assistant in networking courses at UTH’s Computer Engineering Department for more than four years. My solid grasp of TCP/IP networks has allowed me to effectively educate and mentor students, fostering their understanding of complex networking concepts. I am comfortable working with cloud technologies, containers, and automation tools, and I am eager to leverage my skills in a challenging industry role.
