Nitzan Ohana | Startup Advisor

Hi, I'm Nitzan

I specialize in software architecture, infrastructure, developer experience, and designing clear and concise SDLC workflows for teams and companies since 2016. Guiding startups to grow fast while keeping their systems and processes simple and easy to maintain.

With over 20 years in the field—including seven years in an elite unit of the Israeli Intelligence Corps—I've worked across a range of R&D roles in Israel's high-tech industry, helping teams build reliable systems and improve how they deliver software.
