Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRotem Yakir is a multidisciplinary technology leader and three-time founder with over 20 years building products, platforms, and teams that have reached 100M+ users and processed over $100M in transactions. Currently General Manager of Innovation & Strategic Initiatives at Meanwhile, he combines product strategy, secure platform engineering, and capital design to modernize life insurance for a Bitcoin-native environment. Prior roles span co-founder/CTO and R&D leadership in Web3, DeFi, mobile, and enterprise SaaS—shipping AMMs, NFT tooling, high-throughput APIs, and a marketing platform that served global users. He’s equally comfortable sharpening company strategy for founders as embedding as a fractional exec to drive hiring, execution, and scale. Less obvious: Rotem has repeatedly turned trading and financial primitives into production systems (auto-compound vaults, looping yield contracts, and a forex algo with 50%+ returns), demonstrating both product intuition and deep quantitative engineering. Based in the United States, he blends startup grit with a knack for exploring new spaces where technology and shared experiences intersect, currently focusing on innovation in golf tech.
