Summary

Omer Rosenbaum lives in Tel Aviv, with his wife and 3 month old son. He loves to teach, and he shares his knowledge on his YouTube channel. He loves coffee, traveling, meeting new people, and learning languages (not just coding languages). In High School, he took an after school Pascal class - and he loved it. And around that time, he installed a virus on his computer, and established a new hobby for him - virus removal. As military service is obligatory, he spent several years in the Israeli military and learned a ton. Despite the skill level of engineers these days, Omer found that the onboarding processes of many companies were too costly. After discussing this issue with many end users, they confirmed that the world of knowledge sharing was broken... and they wanted to fix it. This is the creation story of Swimm.
