What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values innovation and teamwork, offering opportunities for growth and skill development.

I am a passionate PC technician with extensive experience in computer setups, repairs, and electronic systems. My journey began with self-employment, where I honed my skills in installing new computer systems and troubleshooting hardware issues. I take pride in my ability to deliver high-quality service, ensuring customer satisfaction through effective communication and technical expertise.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various roles, including a technician at Naftilos Computers and a sales assistant at Eshop.gr. My experience encompasses data recovery, network setup, and the assembly of electronic systems. I have successfully contributed to projects such as the Transport of Athens Smart Bus Stops, where I played a key role in assembling electronic parts for real-time passenger information systems.

With a BSc in Electronics Engineering and several certifications, I am committed to continuous learning and staying updated with the latest technologies. I thrive in collaborative environments and am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic team focused on innovation and excellence.
