Matan Cohen / Technion Excellence Program

About Myself:  I was born in 1998 and grew up in Haifa. I attended Ironi Gimel High School, where I majored in Computer Science, Biology, and Robotics. During high school, I participated in the Roboner robotics competition (also known as the Trinity Firefighting Robot Contest), where my team achieved 2nd place. 

Following high school, I served in the IDF’s Intelligence Corps for over five years as a software developer, instructor, and security researcher. After completing my military service, I worked as a software developer at a startup in the Quantum Computing sector, where I was part of a team developing an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for quantum computing software. 

Hobbies and Other Activities:  In my free time, I enjoy DIY electronics, 3D printing, playing video games, traveling, reading, and learning. Additionally, when time and weather permit, I love snowboarding.
