Michael Simos is an experienced DevOps engineer with nine years in software, combining practical systems work with deep academic research in semantic information retrieval and data mining. Based in Patras, Greece, he brings expertise across automation, orchestration, configuration management, large-scale systems architecture, monitoring, and machine learning. Holding an MSc in Data Mining and pursuing a PhD in Semantic Information Retrieval from the University of Patras, he blends rigorous research methods with hands-on engineering. Michael is comfortable across programming and scripting, system administration, and productionizing ML-informed infrastructure decisions. He tends to bridge the gap between experimental research and reliable operations, making him effective at turning complex data-driven ideas into maintainable systems. An analytical thinker with an academic background, he often applies semantic and mining techniques to improve observability and automation workflows.
