More about me Gilad Heitner

About

Hi, I'm Gilad. I like building things end-to-end — from low-level systems in C, to real-time JavaScript services, to Python ML and AI projects. Most of what you'll see here started as a class project, a hackathon, or a late-night curiosity that got out of hand.

Current interests: distributed systems, applied AI, and developer tooling. Always open to collaborating on something cool — reach out via LinkedIn or GitHub.

Tech I reach for

Python JavaScript / Node C / C++ Java Docker Git & CI ML / AI
