About

An entrepreneur at heart: co-founded several startups (Per Diem, Heartistfy & CityOwls) Blogger & passionate open source contributor. Hacking blockchain apps on my free time. You can find my work on Medium (medium.com/@doronsegal/) I strive for perfection in everything I do. I’m a team player, fast learner, and have significant leadership experience as an engineering manager and as and commander in the Israeli Army. I have over 15 years of experience using computers. I am a self-taught engineer, and got my first engineering job when I was 16 years old after I found a security hole in a bank system. I served in the Israeli army as a commander in a technology combat unit. While serving, I learned a lot about myself and gained excellent managerial and leadership skills. During my service I’ve gained the ability to work very well under high pressure with little-to-no margin for error. After the army, I worked as a security research for a cyber security company. Later in my career I held a CTO position at NK Stream LTD. As CTO, I managed four different teams, totaling 15 programmers and IT.
