I am an Android Software Engineer at iFood, one of the largest food delivery platforms in the world, processing over 120 million orders per month. As part of the Order Delivery team, I work on critical flows that every order passes through, directly impacting the experience of millions of users. My expertise spans app performance, scalability, monitoring, and the delivery of robust solutions for complex distributed systems.

In recent years, I have expanded my focus into Edge AI and on-device machine learning. I’ve been actively researching and building proof of concepts using Android’s ML Kit Prompt APIs and on-device generative models, exploring how Edge AI can move from experimentation to real product features. My work investigates practical trade-offs between cloud and on-device AI, including latency, privacy, cost, and scalability, always with a production-first mindset. I am particularly interested in transforming AI capabilities into tangible user value within large-scale mobile applications.

My journey in monitoring began during an internship, where I gained hands-on experience working on large-scale systems. Over time, I developed a deep understanding of designing effective observability strategies, integrating tools such as Analytics, Crashlytics, and health monitoring into development lifecycles. At iFood, I have been responsible for implementing scalable monitoring solutions to ensure operational reliability and an exceptional user experience.

Academically, I hold a degree in Control and Automation Engineering from UNICAMP and I am currently pursuing a postgraduate degree in Software Engineering, also at UNICAMP. My research paper, "Effective Monitoring of Mobile Applications in Production," received top marks and strengthened my ability to bridge theory and real-world engineering challenges. More recently, my academic and professional interests have converged around applied AI in mobile environments, especially the evolution of Edge AI in Android ecosystems.

Beyond work, I am deeply involved in the Android community. I have attended and spoken at international conferences, including Droidcon Berlin 2024 and AndroidMakers by Droidcon Paris, where I share insights on practical on-device AI and scalable mobile architectures. My talks focus on actionable strategies, real-world experimentation, and how to responsibly bring emerging AI technologies into production-grade apps.

Paul M. Wilson is the CEO of NetReputation, a Sarasota, Florida-based company recognized for its expertise in online reputation management, crisis management, public relations, and digital marketing. He is responsible for shaping the company’s long-term direction while ensuring that client needs remain at the forefront of every initiative. His leadership focuses on building a strong operational foundation, aligning teams, and delivering consistent, measurable outcomes for clients across industries.

Paul brings years of experience working with executive teams on revenue growth, organizational alignment, and go-to-market strategy. His approach is grounded in practical execution, where clear planning and disciplined processes support sustainable expansion.

Before taking on his role at NetReputation, he founded Massive Growth Partners, also known as Paul M. Wilson Consulting. Through this firm, he worked with CEOs and leadership teams to build scalable, growth-oriented businesses. His advisory work extended across companies at various stages, from early development to mature organizations seeking to refine their operations.

Robert Kasirer manages his family office, where he helped build a national real estate investment and management company with a diversified portfolio across 12 states. His role has included oversight of real estate investments, property operations, and long-term business direction. He also serves as president of his family foundation, where his charitable work focuses on education and Jewish causes. Through this work, he supports institutions and programs that strengthen learning, identity, and community life.

Kasirer founded nonprofit organizations in the United States and Israel in 2022 to support the development of a digital platform and app for Jewish life. The platform brings together music, learning, prayer, podcasts, videos, and short interactive experiences in one accessible place. It is designed for individuals and communities, while also allowing schools, synagogues, camps, campus groups, organizations, and creators to share their own content through customized digital spaces.

Robert Kasirer comes from a family history shaped by Holocaust survival, deep loss, and lasting purpose. His mother was imprisoned in Auschwitz, while his father was sent to a forced labor camp. Many members of their family were killed during that period. His parents came from a small village in the Carpathian Mountains, and his father trained as a shoemaker after losing his own father at a young age and beginning work to help support the family.

Robert was born in Austria after his parents were liberated, married, and waited for visas to immigrate to the United States. He and one sister were born there before the family later settled in Los Angeles, where another sister was born. After arriving in 1954, his parents helped build Jewish community life by supporting schools, synagogues, and educational institutions, even as those resources remained limited for many families.

Kasirer was raised with the belief that remembrance should lead to education, service, and continued Jewish engagement. His parents wanted the memory of the six million Jews who died in the Holocaust to remain connected to living faith, learning, and identity. That purpose influenced him from childhood. At age 13, he attended a Jewish boarding school in New York, where he studied secular subjects while also becoming proficient in Jewish learning.

Robert Kasirer attended university in New York and later completed law school before passing the New York bar. He began his career as an attorney and helped form a law firm with associates, focusing on public finance and major financing matters across the United States. He later worked with another firm before joining his father in business in 1984. Together, they developed, owned, and operated commercial properties, mainly shopping centers in Los Angeles.

Robert continued operating and growing the family real estate business after his father passed away in 2005. Over time, his two sons and son-in-law joined the family office and its related subsidiaries. They now lead the company and manage daily operations while he serves as chairman. This structure reflects his commitment to continuity, family responsibility, and careful stewardship of the work built through many years of shared effort and practical leadership.

Kasirer sees his digital Jewish platform as a way to help Jewish life remain meaningful in a changing world. He believes each generation must find its own path to tradition, learning, and community, especially when some younger people feel disconnected from traditional institutions. Through technology, he hopes to make Jewish content more accessible while helping organizations strengthen identity, belonging, and engagement across different locations, affiliations, and backgrounds.

Robert Kasirer has been married to his wife for 48 years, and they have four children and 13 grandchildren, including 7 boys and 6 girls. Family remains central to his life, along with his work in business, philanthropy, and Jewish engagement. In his personal time, he enjoys skiing, hiking, and traveling around the world, where he appreciates different traditions, cultures, and landscapes while staying connected to family, heritage, and community.
