Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYitzhak Sapir is a Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of recent industry experience and a long track record of building high-performance C++ server systems across startups and enterprise teams. He specializes in C++/STL, multithreading, OOP/OOD and cross-platform (Windows/Linux) porting, and has deep practical expertise with Boost, ACE/TCP-IP, and lock-free concurrency. At companies like Edgybees, Zerto and Akamai he redesigned servers, integrated media/ML pipelines (FFmpeg, OpenCV, TensorRT/ONNX, gRPC) and converted Python/PyTorch algorithms into optimized CUDA/OpenCV implementations. He’s a skilled debugger and reverse-engineer who routinely diagnoses memory and concurrency faults and has led features that improve consistency and performance at scale. Comfortable across low-level system APIs and modern observability tooling (Jaeger) as well as build/obfuscation tooling (pyOxidizer), he blends hands-on optimization with pragmatic architecture. Based in Israel, he pairs an M.Sc. in Computer Studies and a BSE in Computer Systems Engineering with a knack for turning complex, multithreaded problems into maintainable production code.
