Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolZohar Jackson is a software engineer with 12 years of experience building production-grade systems across autonomy, observability, and startup engineering leadership. Currently at Arbor Systematic Research after a stint at Datadog, he combines hands-on architecture and algorithm development with people-first leadership from roles including VP of Engineering at Visionary.ai and team lead at Mobileye. His background includes developing algorithms and infrastructure for fully autonomous vehicles and early research into multi-modal, unsupervised deep learning and cognitive architectures. He took a deliberate sabbatical to write a book, travel, and deepen a meditation practice—work available at CodeIsForHumans.com—demonstrating an unusual blend of technical rigor and human-centered reflection. Based in New York, he pairs physics training from the University of Illinois with applied machine learning and systems experience to move experimental research into reliable production.
