At Elbit Systems, I lead audio and communications engineering for F-15 and F-16 flight simulators, building real-time pilot tones, WAV playback, ambient noise, and inter-aircraft radio channels.

I engineer low-latency communication across distributed physical machines, Windows hosts, and Linux VM compilation nodes. I also maintain SimAudio and integrate the Simphonics engine for real-time simulation triggers and dynamic radio channels.

Previously at Mobile Tornado, I modernized C++98 core modules to C++11, built backend systems supporting 20,000+ concurrent users per global server node, and optimized TCP/IP, UDP, and Oracle SQL components. I’ve also mentored aspiring developers in Python, OOP, code reviews, and debugging.
