    September 2006October 2009 (3 years 2 months)

    Go2Web20 (www.go2web20.net) was founded with Orli Yakuel.

  • VP R&D

    Mantis ltd

    (Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Internet industry)

    2006October 2007 (1 year )

    Manage few products developed in-house.
    Obviously, not much can be said here.

  • VP Technologies & User Experience

    Mantis ltd.

    (Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Internet industry)

    20022006 (4 years )

    My job during this period was a mixture of responsibilities.
    One of them grew naturally from the web and GUI design to a full user experience design. That starts from understanding the strategic brief of the product/site, through defining usage scenarios, to a full specification of content, features and hierarchies.
    The other responsibility was to manage the technologies in Mantis. By the end of this period, a devision called "Mantis Technologies" was up and running with around 10 developers. Since most of the developers in Mantis are high-end professionals, my challenge was mostly to choose the right combination of technologies for the task.

  • Web/GUI designer & Flash Developer

    Mantis ltd.

    (Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Internet industry)

    19982002 (4 years )

    During my studies, joined a freelance web designer (Ronel Mor) and grew together to become Mantis, a leading interactive media company of 40 minds.
    Started as a web and GUI designer. Later on, when Flash came along, I started testing it and looked for ways to overcome the lame interactivity options it had back then.
