About Me

Hello! My name is Giorgos(George) Papadakis and I am Senior Software Engineer. My current projects are with clients in Automotive Industry(NDA), working on designing and developing the next generation systems for automated Collisions Predictor on Automotive software. My interests are in the broad area of computer systems and storage systems. Special emphasis has been placed in Cloud Computing and Big Data Analytics. Lately I have gained a lot of experience in Embedded Automotive Software. Finally, I study and develop software for Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain for well established nonprofit organizations.

Always passionate for knowledge and science, combined with a constant strong desire to learn new skills and technologies. Here are some Languages and technologies currently being used: C, C++, CodeProver, BugFinder, AutoSAR, Python, Bash, Java.

In my own time, I enjoy swimming, playing chess, reading philosophy
and much more...

Testimonials

  • Vicarious learning from the experiences of others saves making errors yourself, but I regard the study of successes as being basically more important than the study of failures. There are so many ways of being wrong and so few of being right, studying successes is more efficient.

    Richard Hamming

  • There is no perfection only life.

    Milan Kundera

  • If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.

    Nikola Tesla

  • We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking.

    Albert Camus

  • True generosity toward the future consists in giving everything to the present.
