Gal /gʌl/ noun
A people person, experienced in analyzing problems
and solving them creatively.
My love for languages, technology and science was always second only to my love for people.
In 2008 I enlisted to IDF's 8200 unit as a language specialist. During my 5-year service I became an officer and served in both professional and management roles.
After completing my army service, the experience and skills I gathered were put to use in my business and technological activities and allowed me:
-
To establish a revenue-stream of several hundred-thousands of dollars for an AdTech company I worked for;
-
To have a leadership role in a student-run NGO that promotes entrepreneurship in Be’er Sheva;
-
To co-found the app Dateling – a dating app that enables potential partners to get to know each other through voice conversations.
Combining two of my greatest passions - programming and languages - I'm currently close to completing my studies towards a joint B.Sc degree in Computer Science and Linguistics from Ben-Gurion University.
In my work and personal
projects I use
Java
,
ReactJS
,
jQuery
,
HTML
and
CSS
. My university projects also use
C
,
C++
,
Assembly
,
SQL
and
Python
.
As I'm highly aware to the elegance of my products, I keep learning and pushing myself towards cleaner code and more beautiful UI.
My dream is to join the Natural Language Processing (NLP) industry and contribute to the computational linguistics revolution, that is allowing both people and computers to communicate more easily and efficiently. In the meantime, I'm looking for a programmer position at a company that will allow me to learn, develop and be a part of something meaningful.
Let's take it to the next
level!
