🚀 Experienced Software Engineer (6+ Years) | Ex-BMW & Daimler | Solving Complex Problems with Clean Code

Hi! I’m Nikiforos, a senior software engineer specializing in full-stack development (Java/Spring Boot, Vue.js) and DevOps (Docker, Jenkins, OpenShift). I’ve built tools for giants like BMW and Daimler Truck, and I help businesses deliver scalable, high-performance software—on time and on budget.

Here’s what I bring to your project:

✔ Backend Expertise: Robust Java/Spring Boot APIs, microservices, and database solutions (PostgreSQL, Oracle).

✔ Frontend Skills: Modern Vue.js apps with responsive UI/UX (HTML5, CSS).

✔ DevOps & Cloud: CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins), containerization (Docker/OpenShift), and infrastructure automation.

✔ Proven Impact: Delivered projects like:

A CAD converter for BMW (reducing render time by 40%).

Central display system for Daimler Trucks (Vue.js frontend + CAN bus integration).

Supplier management web app (Liferay, Java, PostgreSQL).

Industries I Serve:

Enterprise IT Solutions

Startups (MVP Development)
