About Me
Architect of Breakthrough Platforms
I architect and ship frontier platforms in AI, spatial compute, and cyber — from national-scale intelligence systems to AR/VR devices and AI-native products.
Over the last two decades I've moved across the stack and across domains:
- Early career building wireless, DSP, and intelligence systems in the Office of the Prime Minister of Israel, where I received the Prime Minister's Prize for Technological-Operational Achievement.
- Cyber-security and active defense systems for Fortune-50 companies, including patented protections for Windows environments.
- Mixed-reality hardware and perception at Magic Leap, directing the architecture of a state-of-the-art MR device, leading global teams across HW, computer vision, and embedded software, and pioneering synthetic-data and eye-tracking efforts.
- AI & Computer Vision at Meta, where I led the Visual Positioning System (VPS): worldwide 3D mapping and 6DoF localization for XR headsets and glasses, and built large-scale 3D synthetic-data and "virtual engineering" platforms used for training perception systems in Meta Quest headsets and Ray-Ban AI glasses.
Today I focus on building, consulting, and investing in AI-native and spatial-compute platforms, with particular interest in:
- Multi-agent systems and tool-using AI
- Synthetic-data and simulation for perception and decision-making
- Architectures that bridge hardware constraints with ambitious product experiences
