Senior C++ software engineer building real-time systems, games, and web platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior C++ software engineer who builds high-performance, real-time back ends and the web experiences that connect to them. I designed and developed Wordef, an online multiplayer word game, with a modern C++ game server (uWebSockets), robust HTTP/WebSocket APIs, token-based sessions, and scalable Docker + Google Cloud hosting.
Across my experience—especially as a Senior C++ Software Engineer on AI-driven real-time video analytics—I’ve delivered multi-platform C++ 20 products, RESTful APIs, plugins, and SDKs. Earlier, I led full-stack development work in the IDF to digitalize logistical procedures, using TypeScript/React with ExpressJS and NestJS, and supporting cloud CI/CD with Azure and AWS.
