I build tailored software and digital identity solutions for organizations across Greece and Europe.
What I'm looking for
I founded Flare, a software development, R&D, and marketing agency serving organizations across Greece and Europe. We have supported more than 40 active clients with tailored software, business consulting, research, and marketing solutions.
My work includes supporting the Greek Government on a major Region of Attica platform, contributing to the EU Digital Identity Wallet, and developing DataTutor, Greece's first Greek-language data analytics platform. I've also delivered R&D and software development services for PALAEMON, the University of Piraeus, the University of the Aegean, and the National Documentation Center.
As a software engineer for Intesi Group, NOBID Consortium, and the EU Digital Wallet Consortium, I work with digital identity technologies including PKI, OpenID Connect, OpenSSL, OpenID4VP, and OpenID4VCI.
I also bring experience leading technical operations, commercial projects, technical proposals, training, and hiring at Konnektable Technologies. I enjoy learning each client's story and turning practical challenges into focused, impactful solutions without overselling.
