Bio
Andy Hill
I worked with Yuval on the development of a semiconductor wafer defect inspection system in the 2007 timeframe. Yuval was one of the chief system design engineers on the project, and I was the chief optical design engineer. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Yuval. Here's a short list of adjectives that I would use to describe him: - Intelligent - Practical - Clever - Conscientious - Hard working - Modest - Fun to be around I don't remember the exact extent what all Yuval was working on, but I do remember that he led the development of the autofocus subsystem. This was anticipated to be the most problematic of subsystems. I believe the prototype autofocus system came up with zero problems encountered. Truly a testament to Yuval's abilities. I hope that some day I get a chance to work with him again. Andy Hill Optical System Engineer KLA-Tencor

Yuval is very intelligent and creative with a broad background in optics and electronics. He has worked in a variety of projects with me. I hired him at my startup company, Spectralane, and then a couple of years later used him as a consultant when I was working at Credence and needed someone with good optics, electronics, and software skills.
