About

Senior Product Manager in cybersecurity, currently at Zenity, focused on securing AI agents and GenAI-powered workflows. I bring ~10 years of experience across product management, cybersecurity, and startups, with a strong track record of building pragmatic, customer-driven security solutions — from API security and threat detection to scalable platforms that support real enterprise needs. Previously at F5 & Wib, where I led key API Security initiatives and worked closely across engineering, field, and sales to turn customer pain into shippable products. Earlier in my career, I co-founded SimpleAccess, led product at MULTITED, and served as an Information Security Operator in the Israeli Air Force, protecting sensitive networks and systems. I’m passionate about building security products that help organizations adopt new technologies confidently — especially as generative AI becomes deeply embedded across the modern enterprise.
