Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRotem Hermon is a Senior Architect at SAP Customer Experience with 14 years of professional experience building and scaling customer-data and loyalty platforms. He has driven major architecture transitions—from monoliths to microservices and actor-based systems—while leading product integration after Gigya’s acquisition into SAP and launching the SAP Customer Data Platform. Deeply technical and hands-on, Rotem has designed internal DaaS, streaming data pipelines, and high‑scale backend services, and contributed to widely used open-source Hadoop compatibility code. He blends rigorous computer-science training with summa‑cum‑laude philosophy studies, which informs a pragmatic yet thoughtful approach to product and system design. Known for mentoring teams, translating complex product requirements into resilient architectures, and shipping production-grade distributed systems, he operates comfortably across Scala, Java, .NET, and big-data stacks. Based in Israel, he’s equally at home solving low-level compatibility issues as he is shaping long-term platform strategy.
