I am Alexander Sofianos and I am looking for a new professional opportunity in a technology-related environment in Germany, primarily remote, with occasional on-site presence in the Munich area by arrangement. My profile combines support, Linux practice and clean documentation with a solid finance background in equity research, valuation and modelling.
I currently work in German- and English-speaking guest support for Booking.com through TTEC. In addition, I bring many years of freelance IT experience, home-lab projects with Ubuntu, KVM, Docker, Kubernetes and Ansible, as well as previous experience as an Equity Analyst working with DCF, WACC and multiples models.
Target region Munich · regular stays in Pfaffenhofen a.d. Ilm · mainly remote
I am especially interested in roles in IT support, technical support, operations, junior administration, as well as FinTech-related functions at the intersection of technology, processes, data and finance.
Finance is not a side note for me, but a real part of my professional path. Alongside IT and Linux, I bring a solid background in equity research, company valuation and modelling.
I combine technical practice with analytical thinking. This becomes especially useful when processes need to be documented clearly, models need to be built in a traceable way, data must be structured logically and results should be communicated clearly.
I am not looking for a decorative buzzword role. I am interested in work with substance: understanding problems, working carefully, documenting clearly, keeping systems stable and handling complex matters in a calm and understandable way.
This can be in a classic IT support team, but also in a FinTech, analytics or operations environment where technical understanding and finance awareness meet.
Building a stable Ubuntu environment as a daily main system with reproducible backup/cloning workflows, virtualisation and secure data handling.
