Vassilis Giannakopoulos

Chief Marketing Officer, Marketing, Social Impact and Business Development

Despina Chalvatzi

Project Manager

She works where she chose to volunteer. What more could anyone ask for? And yet at SciFY she found the space to unfold her love for organization and creation. A classic bookworm that never stops being excited by new knowledge and opportunities for development!

Antigoni Poulou

Front-end Developer & Business Analyst

Loves structure; her mind makes connections and categorizes everything in libraries so that they make sense, sometimes only to her. She couldn’t be anything but a programmer! A journey that started in SciFY (and has nothing to do with her studies) but could only be realized here!

Stefanos Koutoupis

Devops & Backend Enginee

He is passionate about automating and optimizing software development processes. When not in the office, he enjoys his free time devoted to music.

Nazeli Papadaki

Marketing Executive & Event Manager

Loves harmony and adores humor! She's interested in psychology because it helps her understand the world and evolve. She likes listening to people to communicate with them meaningfully. Organization and coordination are her strengths; that’s how she ascertains that the work gets done efficiently, and she feels peaceful!

Afroditi Darzenta

Volunteer

Not sure if she’d prefer doing translations or putting on music and do product testing, but what’s sure is that time at work flies by!

Manos C.

Principal Software Engineer / Front-end Expert

His favorite quote: “Whether it happens in a 100 years or a 1000 or a million years, eventually our Sun will grow cold and go out. When that happens, it won’t just take us. It’ll take Marilyn Monroe and Lao Tzu and Einstein and Morobuto and Buddy Holly and Aristophanes… and all of this was for nothing… unless we go to the stars.”

Kostas Papandreou

Full Stack Software Engineer

A curious soul, always wanting to learn cool things about the world around him. Being a hopeless perfectionist, he enjoys working on projects that make his life ever so slightly more efficient. When he's not facing analysis paralysis, you'll find him laughing with friends, strumming tunes on the guitar, or simply cherishing quality time with loved ones.
