Summary
Shaked Dunay is a Staff Software Engineer based in Israel with nine years of professional experience building production-grade machine learning systems and security-focused software. He has driven substantial performance gains—such as 11x faster training pipelines and a 30x reduction in local training time—by profiling compute hotspots, reengineering logic, and enforcing testing and metrics-driven safeguards. His work spans end-to-end ML: from Siamese and hierarchical multimodal classifiers to scalable inference serving for 100M+ product catalogs, and he brings rare crossover expertise in cybersecurity from early roles at Check Point and IntSights. A pragmatic technical leader and mentor, Shaked emphasizes robustness and reproducibility in production ML, often uncovering subtle data or code-induced degradations before they affect customers.
