Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Andel is a seasoned graphics and systems engineer with 12+ years of hands-on experience building high-performance rendering, simulation, and visualization engines where milliseconds and reliability matter. Based in Israel, he has served as a solo R&D driver and technical director for startups and established teams, delivering CUDA-accelerated point-cloud rendering, Vulkan cross-platform engines, PS3/PS4 optimizations, HoloLens AR prototypes, and medical/GIS visualization systems. He blends deep low-level expertise (GPU, WebAssembly, Cell architecture) with product-facing work—creating investor demos, prototyping Houdini/USD pipelines, and coaching teams on R&D and source control. Notably comfortable as a lone-engineer founder-type, Alex repeatedly turns research-grade algorithms (ICP, SDF, advanced lighting) into deployable prototypes that helped secure funding and commercial traction.
