Sorin Srbu’s Summary
Started out in the late 80s with an Amstrad PC1512 running a wretched little 8086 CPU and MS-DOS. Since then I've expanded my IT-knowledge in most everything IT; I know a little about many areas and a whole lot about others.
In 1992 I took two basic chemistry courses at Mitthögskolan in Sundsvall. I stayed there till spring 1993.
1993 in the autumn found me in Uppsala and the Uppsala University, where I'd applied to take chemistry, biology and immunology courses. I did my final exam for a BSc at the Institution of Medical and Physiological Chemistry in 1996.
1997-1999 I took two temp-jobs as a teacher in mathematics, chemistry, biology, computers and technology with the senior high-classes at Tiundaskolan in Uppsala and Aspenskolan in Tierp.
Until 1999 I was a hobbyist IT-guy, helping out family and friends. In the autumn 1999 however, I was offered to take a six month IT-course by SwIT (Swedish IT) to become a certified Systems Engineer, an opportunity I leapt at. This included getting certified by Microsoft, and I now hold MCSE, MCP and MCP+I certifications, as well as a CompTIA A+.
In the autumn of 2000, I was employed at the Uppsala University at the Department of Organic Pharmaceutical Chemistry to help them build an IT infrastructure. There was already a *nix-based group in place doing CADD (Computer Aided Drug Design), but my task was to expand and fortify IT for the Ph. D.-students and senior staff. I did this and was further hired for IT-support and maintenance.
In 2007 I was hired as a Sysadmin by the department for the foreseeable future and got other assignments added as well, including but not limited to web development and maintenance and supporting and maintaining the *nix-group.
