I help companies, startups, and professionals with ideation, validation, strategy development, and translating all of the above into clear, effective business, marketing, and technical materials. Both collaboratively and independently, I work with clients to shape and articulate their ideas, adding business and operational context. Depending on the engagement, I then craft the required materials with a focus on clarity, structure, and usability. Prior to striking out on my own, I spent over 20 years in the software industry, primarily with startups, in business development, product management, and senior management roles. Bringing both hands-on business experience and strong writing capabilities, I develop materials that are not only well-written, but grounded from roots to leaves in the real world. I hold a BSE in Information Systems Engineering from the Technion and an MBA from the University of Arizona, both summa cum laude. I am comfortable working from scratch or refining existing materials, and can quickly align with your business, audience, and objectives. My goal is to deliver clear, fully baked strategies and texts, supporting diagrams, images, and other materials that reflect your thinking and can be put to immediate use. If this sounds like a good fit, I’d be happy to discuss your project.

Key Areas of Expertise (10+ years’ experience) • AI-Enabled Talent and People Infrastructure • Multi-Layer AI Agent Design and Workflow Automation • Start-up and Scale-up Operations • Executive Recruitment and Workforce Strategy • Embedding AI into HR Systems, Hiring Processes, and Evaluation Frameworks • Team Coaching and Capability Development I have over a decade of experience across operations, HR, and executive recruitment, working primarily with early-stage and scaling businesses. I partner with founders and leadership teams to build the structures, teams, and ways of working required to deliver against commercial goals. My focus is on turning strategy into execution. This involves defining operating models, clarifying ownership, and implementing practical frameworks such as SOPs, process maps, RACI, and decision-making structures. The objective is to remove ambiguity, increase pace, and enable teams to operate effectively as the business grows. A key differentiator in my work is the design and deployment of AI across talent and operations. I build multi-layered AI agent systems that integrate directly into workflows, supporting the full hiring and people lifecycle, from role definition and sourcing through to assessment, decision-making, and onboarding. This includes: - AI agents for sourcing, screening, and candidate engagement - Structured evaluation frameworks and AI-supported scorecards to improve consistency and hiring quality - Automated workflows across recruitment and HR to eliminate manual bottlenecks - Decision-support systems that enable faster, more informed hiring outcomes - AI embedded within HR environments to support performance tracking, documentation, and day-to-day operations The approach is always practical, integrating AI into existing environments so it is adopted, scalable, and aligned with business priorities rather than adding unnecessary complexity. Alongside this, I lead executive and GTM hiring as a strategic function rather than a transactional process. I work closely with leadership teams to define roles based on business priorities, build hiring roadmaps, and deliver targeted searches that balance capability, potential, and long-term alignment. I also focus heavily on team performance and leadership development. I support early GTM and operational teams operating in high-pressure environments, particularly where client relationships and revenue are at risk. This includes onboarding, coaching on complex client scenarios, strengthening commercial judgement, and improving consistency in execution. At leadership level, I help sharpen decision-making, accountability, and performance standards. In addition, I support individuals stepping into greater responsibility, helping them navigate complexity, improve judgement, and perform effectively under pressure. Overall, I work across people, operations, and AI-enabled systems, helping businesses build the structure, capability, and infrastructure needed to scale while maintaining control of execution.
