Ohad comes to us from Gong, where he spent six years leading R&D and scaling the org from tens to hundreds of people, with earlier leadership roles at Imperva and Akamai. Thirty years in the industry across security, SaaS and business applications - and, by his own account, still more excited about the next problem than the last one.
His work at Gong put him on the application side of AI: partnering with AI labs and inference engine providers, shipping AI features to thousands of customers, and close enough to the infrastructure to know what it costs when it doesn't hold.
At DriveNets he moves to the other side of that equation: from building on AI to building the fabric behind the world's largest GPU clusters and ensuring AI works in the first place.
Ohad, welcome to the team. Looking forward to working together.
