Thanos Kolovos

Hello all!

I’m Thanos Kolovos, based in Athens, Greece, and currently the Associate Director of Engineering at GWI. Before that, I worked at Causaly and Transifex, leading and growing teams while shaping the engineering function. Earlier in my career, I worked with digital agencies and companies across Greece as both a Frontend and Backend Engineer, so yes, I’ve probably left a few security holes behind.

What drives me is not just code but how teams and products evolve. Over the years, I’ve become fascinated by the human side of tech. What makes people tick, how great teams thrive, and how to help individuals grow while growing myself and creating amazing products.

This is my writing space. I started with coding topics, but now I explore leadership, management, and the human side of building products.

This space is my personal playground. Every word is mine, and nothing here reflects the views of any company, project, or person I work with. Stories may come from real experiences, be slightly dramatized, or entirely imagined.

I’m around the web and always happy to connect or hear feedback:
