Aristeidis Vlachopanos

IT Engineer

In 2002 I was accepted in the Physics Department of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, however from early on I understood that my true calling laid in the science of informatics. This realization urged me to explore different paths towards the field of informatics and acquire my first knowledge through my participation in the Department's Computer Lab Support Team, teaching of the Applied Informatics Lab as a pre-graduate assistant without pay and my employment in the Grid Infrastructure Team of A.U.Th..

In 2008 my love for informatics led me to transfer to the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications, T.E.I. of Epirus where I graduated in 2013 with honors. During my time in the T.E.I. I was employed in the Laboratory of Knowledge and Intelligent Computing and in the Central Library of the Institute as a technician. I completed my practice in the IT department of the Hellenic Vehicle Industry (ELVO). In January of 2014 I completed my Military Service.

In September of 2015 I joined the work force of Neda Intelligent Media as an Information Systems Analyst - Technical Consultant. Our partnership ended in December 2015.

From July of 2016 until October 2017 I worked at Alfanet S.A. as a Computer Technician.

In October of 2017 I started collaborating with deZitech dynamics as a PHP Developer and Server Administrator.
