Dr. David Faitelson

I was born in 1969. I’m married and have three children.

I started coding in the second millennium (in 1982), and have been programming and exploring ways to code better ever since.

After receiving my undergraduate degree in mathematics and computer science from Tel Aviv University in 1992, I spent a decade at various development and consulting roles in the software industry. In 2001, I returned to school at England’s Oxford University, to learn how mathematical tools could be used to develop reliable software systems. In 2004, I received my graduate degree in software engineering, and in 2007 my doctorate in computer science, both from Oxford. In spent 2008 as a postdoc at the Technion, followed by two years at startup companies. Since 2010, I’ve been a faculty member at Afeka college. In 2016-2018, I completed a graduate degree in integrated design at the Holon Institute of Technology.
