Episode Summary

Noam has recently started offering his services and experiences independently after 20 hands-on years in the software industry. His most recent position was as a Software Architect working on the Wix Editor at Wix, an Israeli cloud-based web development platform.

Noam was first introduced to programming at the age of seven when he started creating games in Pascal language. He then went onto learn HTML. Charles and Noam talk about how the programming community has changed over the years and how it is a lot easier to access knowledge today. On how to improve as a developer, Noam recommends not staying in the comfort zone of the job description and doing as many volunteer projects as possible.

Noam is also a musician and he plays base in Lost Highways music band. When he isn't coding he is busy producing the songs for their new upcoming album with his band.
