About
With extensive leadership experience in R&D, software architecture, project management, and software development, I have a proven track record of driving innovation and leading teams through complex challenges. I excel in overseeing multi-site teams and managing custom engineering projects, ensuring seamless execution and alignment with strategic goals. My deep understanding of system architecture, combined with a hands-on approach, enables me to maintain a broad technical perspective while executing at the highest level.
I have been at the forefront of transitioning organizations to cutting-edge technologies, spearheading the integration of new advancements across the company. For example, at Pixellot, I pushed the introduction of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) for computer vision, significantly enhancing the company's technological capabilities. I have also played a pivotal role in the M&A processes of Radvision and Avaya, overseeing the integration of Radvision’s R&D into Avaya's structure, and led the M&A process for Pixellot, ensuring smooth transitions and alignment with long-term innovation goals.

I also scaled our product offerings while maintaining a balance between service quality and cost efficiency, ensuring alignment with business goals and customer needs.
