Work Experience

Research Engineer at Weizmann Institute of Science, Computational Imaging
May 1, 2025 - November 19, 2025
Built experimental setup and a software framework for data acquisition, processing, and analysis in Python of state-of-the-art video motion magnification algorithms. Implemented a beamforming pipeline (via acoular library) for sound localization in broadband, nonstationary video scenes.
Signal Processing Algorithm Developer at DSIT Solutions
June 1, 2024 - June 1, 2024
Developed a performance analysis pipeline in Matlab with Monte Carlo simulations to compare detection algorithms for FM, CW, and coded pulses. Built an in-house reverberation generator and integrated algorithms to effectively simulate pulse detections (range and LOS velocity) for real-time applications.
Junior Algorithm Developer at SOSense, Tuned for Life
January 1, 2023 - January 1, 2023
Optimized parametric models and algorithms in both Matlab and Python for detecting human entry into private swimming pools. Validated performance in real-time testing and developed an automated framework for testing algorithms on experimental data.
