Education

• 2017-2023: B.Sc. in Computer Science at The Open University, graduating soon (Average score: 81).
• 2016: Bagrut at Computer Science: My friend and I studied together to extend our Bagrut certificate on our free time, while we served at the army.

Practical knowledge

Algorithms, data structures, multithreading, defensive programming ,networking, database systems.

Programming languages

• Java: I made various software using Java, learned it while both doing my Bargut certificate and as part of my academic studies. Specifically, I took 2 courses that were about Java, Introduction and Advanced. One of the projects I made while taking the advanced course, that uses various programming concepts like advanced multi-threading and networking concepts, is presented in my portfolio.
• PostgreSQL: One of the academic courses I chose to take was about PostgreSQL. I learned to use complex, nested queries to extract data as needed.
• C++, Python and SQLite3: I learned C++ and Python while taking a course about defensive programming as part of my academic studies, I self taught both while using online resources, books and the official docs. As part of the course, I made a server-client project, I used C++ at the client side and Python and SQLite3 at the server side, while, learning SQLite3 on the fly while taking advantage of my PostgreSQL skills I already had. This project, that uses various concepts including defensive programming and networking concepts, is presented in my portfolio.

Work experience

• 2017-2018: Worked at IBM at the Lenovo department as a technical support: We dealt with a large customer base; I diagnosed problems with both my existing knowledge and researching on the fly. Then, depending on the problem, I fixed it by giving instructions or using remote control tools. Also, I made followup calls to costumers as needed, usually when the fix included steps that the costumer needed to follow, when either a step took some time to perform, or the consumer ask to continue the procedure at a more convenient time for them.
• 2016-2022 (During my degree): I taught Java to high school and college students: Usually I had to start from the very basic starting point: types, conditions and loops, then continue with Object Oriented Programming principles, both the basics and more advanced topics like Polymorphism, and ended up with teaching recursion and efficiency in both principles and practice. Sometimes I also taught generics concepts, depends on the student’s needs.
• 2013-2014- PC Technician: I fixed hardware and software problems, Install OSs and drivers, solved issues both on site and via remote control.

Israel Defense Forces (2014-2017)
