running.

I'm Konstantinos Sigalas — an IT professional with more than 15 years keeping enterprise infrastructure, networks and communications running. I'm part of the IT team that looks after roughly 500 users across the seven-building Viohalco Group campus in Marousi, covering Microsoft 365 support, networking, IP telephony and everyday troubleshooting.

About

A reliable IT professional behind the scenes.

My work sits with the infrastructure, systems and networks that large organisations lean on every day. Over the years I've moved from structured cabling and unified communications into broad enterprise IT — day-to-day support across Microsoft 365, Windows Server, VMware and Cisco networks, with hundreds of users depending on things simply working.

Right now I'm part of the IT team looking after around 500 users across seven buildings on the Viohalco Group campus in Marousi. It's a busy, multi-company environment: earlier on I was assigned to individual group companies (roughly 2.5 years each with CPW and Cenergy Holdings), and today the remit spans Steelmet, Viexal, CPW, Hellenic Cables, Fulgor, Sidenor and others on site — helping keep servers, networking and telephony stable at over 99% uptime.

I like to work methodically: confirm the symptoms, isolate the cause, apply the fix, and write it down so it doesn't come back. Behind it all is a Cisco CCNA, an MSc in Digital Communications & Networks and a lot of hands-on hours. Away from the desk, you'll usually find me somewhere off the beaten track in Greece with a drone and a camera.
