Biography (CV) - “What makes me unique?”

• I first worked at a US national lab on 3D reconstruction algorithm to further nuclear fusion research, then at Meta Reality Labs on 3D mapping algorithms in computer vision, e.g. for large-scale 3D reconstruction, user localization, structure from motion etc, on next-generation AR/VR devices. I grew fast and thrived in both environments. This demonstrates my versatile engineering skills, great adaptability, and my strong desire for new opportunities and challenges!

• I always picked up the local language in the country where I studied and I master it well (e.g. German and Hebrew!) It shows my drive and innate ability, not only to quickly adapt myself to a new environment, but also to succeed! Knowing many languages is a big plus in the industry and business world!

• Computational differential geometry is not easy. I show via my math PhD that I can handle deep technical subjects and that the strong analytical skills I’ve learned can be applied to other fields!
