Assaf Tzur-El
Software Architect. Fractional CTO. Chaos Tamer.Simple. Technology
Assaf Tzur-El has spent more than 30 years in almost every role the software industry has to offer – developer, team lead, architect, project manager, and fractional CTO – across startups, scale-ups, and enterprises, across industries and technologies, in Israel and internationally. He has advised founders and CTOs at the strategic level, taught programming to developers from juniors to senior engineers, and still writes and reviews code today, keeping the strategic thinking grounded in technical reality.
He thrives on diving into chaos – and coming out with clarity, structure, and forward momentum. He works at the intersection of code and organization: the technical decisions that shape how teams work, the process friction and breakdowns, and the architectural choices that accumulate silently until they become someone's emergency.
Three decades of cross-company exposure have given him a practiced eye for the patterns that repeat across organizations. His talks translate that recognition into practical thinking that engineers, architects, tech leads, and business leaders can apply immediately.
When he's not optimizing code or dev processes, Assaf volunteers as a judge in a robotics competition, mentors the next generation of developers, and reluctantly stays up-to-date with TikTok trends – courtesy of his kids.
