In elections, there is no room for error. Not even one.
I owned the entire IT infrastructure for the logistical operation of Israel's Local Authority Elections. We set up sophisticated IT systems, built for the most sensitive and time-critical conditions imaginable.
The operation covered the full election cycle: preparing polling stations nationwide, collecting and sorting the double-envelope ballots of voters who cast their vote away from home, and tracking every protocol - before and after election day - in real time.
At the core: a large computerised logistics centre and six regional facilities across the country, all connected and monitored from a single control panel. Every document, every ballot, every movement - tracked, scanned, and secured.
The technology stack included a private server farm, a dedicated communication network, WMS and TMS platforms, POD systems, six tracking systems using QR codes and barcodes, smart OCR scanning, and full information security protocols overseen by a dedicated CISO.
Multiple systems, tightly interconnected. Strict regulatory requirements, complex information security protocols, and a timeline that left no room for delays.
The kind of project that either works perfectly - or makes the news for the wrong reasons.
