Dimitrios V., Linux Containers freelance coder
Dimitrios V.

Freelance Linux Containers developer in Greece

I’m passionate about computer architecture design, distributed computing, HPC and anything related to low-level engineering or requiring to achieve low latency performance. For programming languages I’m using C, C++-17/20 and Python3 on a daily basis. From time to time I also implement CUDA kernels. My preferred compiler is clang along with its tools (clang-tidy and so on) and for build systems I prefer to use Makefiles/CMAKE or Meson+Ninja. I'm comfortable writing assembly in any architecture and I’m familiar with Vector extensions for various architectures(x86/64, Risc5, ARM). In general I have a solid understanding of the underlying hardware components and how to utilize them for performance gains. This also includes concurrency, synchronization primitives and crafting bare metal kernels. In the past I also had to implement compiler infrastructures (including JIT using LLVM-C++-API) for various architectures and emulators. **Finally, one of my #1 skills is that I have many years of different startup environment experience. I believe startups are the best way to progress fast in your career as long as you are able to absorb and process the massive amount of information broadcasted. In the end a startup is no different than a big corporation without the available resources.**
