Summary
Valentin Georgiev is a systems developer and DevOps engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating HPC and bioinformatics infrastructure, currently shaping platform services at SciLifeLab Data Centre. He combines a PhD in Chemical Physics with hands-on expertise in Linux systems, cluster management, cloud research environments, and scientific computing toolchains for NGS and computational chemistry. His background spans research software development (including Java work on Bioclipse), teaching applied bioinformatics, and long-term sysadmin roles at UPPMAX and PDC, giving him a rare blend of domain science and production-grade operations. Known for tooling and training in GNU/Linux, shell scripting, R, and HPC, he focuses on making complex computational workflows reproducible and accessible to researchers. An uncommon strength is his ability to translate wet-lab and chemistry research needs into scalable, user-friendly compute services that accelerate data-driven science.
