Summary
Andreas Soularidis is a software engineer and PhD candidate combining eight years of hands-on backend development in the .NET ecosystem with research in Semantic Web and Generative AI. Employed by the Hellenic Air Force and researching at the Intelligent Systems Research Lab, he explores hybrid approaches that fuse LLM reasoning (RAG, GraphRAG, fine-tuning, prompt engineering) with ontologies and knowledge graphs for time- and life-critical decision support. Comfortable with SQL/NoSQL (PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and modern frontend tech (TypeScript, React), he emphasizes clean, scalable code and continuous learning driven by mentorship and literature. His background spans formal academic training in Semantic Web and AI plus practical systems delivery, and he brings a rare mix of operational software engineering discipline and applied AI research to production problems.
