Dr. Jacob Shabi

Dr. Jacob Shabi specializes in systems engineering, technology project management, and the development of complex systems. He holds a bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering from the Technion, a master’s degree in Industrial Engineering and Management from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and a PhD in Systems Engineering from Tel Aviv University.

Dr. Shabi has nearly four decades of experience developing and managing technology projects, from requirements definition and design through testing, integration, and deployment. His research focuses, among other areas, on planning verification, validation, and testing processes for complex systems, and on developing decision-support models for requirements management in projects. Alongside his research, he teaches systems engineering and project management.
