Benji Mandel

Software Builder • CS Student

I am a Computer Science student at Jerusalem Multidisciplinary College with a passion for software craftsmanship. Whether designing fluid, declarative user experiences in Swift/SwiftUI or implementing low-latency game engines in C++, I thrive on bringing ideas from concept to real-world deployment.

With published applications, strong foundations in object-oriented architecture, and multicultural fluency (Dutch, English, Hebrew), I am constantly exploring cutting-edge developer tools and agentic workflows.
