Nadav Samet
Engineering leader by day, High Sierra explorer on weekends
I'm a software engineer turned engineering manager with a deep love for technology and the great outdoors.
Professional Journey
I started coding as soon as I could reach a keyboard—a curiosity that shaped my career. It took me to Google, where I spent my early career working on Gmail and Google Flights, and now to LinkedIn, where I lead a GenAI Foundations team within CoreAI. My work centers on the evaluation frameworks that allow us to improve AI at scale. While my role has shifted from writing every line of code to guiding high-impact teams, I remain a builder at heart.

The Great Outdoors
When not immersed in technology, you can often find me on a backpacking adventure. I have a particular fondness for the High Sierra, where the rugged beauty of the landscape and the serenity of nature never cease to amaze me.
Those trips energize me. There's nothing like waking up early in nature and watching the sun rising over a serene alpine lake or a snow-covered peak.
