Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBarak Weiss is a seasoned software engineer with 11 years of professional experience, currently building APIs at Lightricks' LTX team after a decade leading iOS infrastructure efforts. He has led and managed a team of senior developers, owning cross-app libraries, CI systems, and an in-house device farm that kept multiple consumer apps shipping reliably. Earlier work in Intel’s security firmware group gave him deep systems and driver experience, including kernel-mode debugging and performance optimization. Comfortable across C/C++, C#, Swift/Objective-C and tooling, he blends low-level systems rigor with developer-experience improvements for product teams. Based in Modiin-Maccabim-Reut, Israel, he has a B.Sc. in Computer Science from The Hebrew University and a proven knack for turning complex build and deployment challenges into stable, repeatable workflows. Colleagues rely on him not just for code but for pragmatic maintenance practices and scalable internal tools that quietly raise engineering velocity.
