I had the honor and pleasure to work with Itzik in ALU. Itzik is doing an amazing and excellent job in his position and is an asset to his organization. I worked with Itzik for 3 years and during that time I found him to be proactive, respectful and hard working. He always accept responsibilities outside his normal work duties to ensure customers project milestones were met. Itzik is a valuable asset to any organization with diverse product manager skills and boundless enthusiasm.
