Sagie Baram

SAGIE is a movement and ecosystem-building umbrella company designed around one idea: Business and impact aren’t opposites - they’re fuel for each other. The ecosystem is built on three pillars: • A non-profit arm focused on community building, cross-cultural connection, mentorship, research, and social impact programming. • A for-profit service hub where community members offer their expertise to one another and to external clients - with revenue flowing back to fund impact initiatives. • A portfolio of startups and companies driving positive impact or innovation - creating an ecosystem where companies support one another, share resources, and grow together. As Founder, I architect this ecosystem from the ground up: Designing strategic partnerships with organizations, building collaborations, launching cross-cultural networking programs, and creating the operational systems that power it all. The model is simple: make money, invest in positive impact, give back. Every layer feeds the next.

Leading the design and activation of NebulAI’s global ecosystem - driving strategic partnerships across enterprises, universities, AI labs, and venture networks to accelerate adoption, talent mobility, and real-world AI collaboration at scale. • Global ecosystem strategy and network architecture • Enterprise and institutional partnerships • University and AI lab engagement programs • Design partner and enterprise adoption pathways • Ecosystem-driven business development and deal flow • Talent network activation and strategic introductions Building the connective layer between talent, organizations, and opportunity - enabling Nebulai to scale as a foundational platform for AI-native collaboration and workforce coordination.

I partner with startups and early-stage companies as their operational backbone - building the systems, processes, and strategic partnerships that turn vision into traction. What I bring to the table: • Operational infrastructure design & process optimization • Go-to-market strategy & execution frameworks • Talent sourcing & team-building pipelines • Investor, partner, and ecosystem introductions • Tech implementation advisory & Notion-based operating systems My approach combines systems thinking with people-first leadership - building infrastructure that scales without losing the human element.

Built sales operating infrastructure for a luxury STR property management franchise, scaling pipeline execution through systems, automation, and team enablement. • Built the sales function end-to-end: recruiting pipeline, hiring, onboarding, training, performance management, SOP's and playbooks. • Designed a remote-first operating system in Notion across recruiting, lead management, property portfolio health, and an executive command center with strategic planning tools including KPIs, budget tracking and general resources. • Built automation workflows that cut skip-trace research time 50–75%; Designed a POC testing framework - a roadmap to remove 60–80% of manual lead research, enrich lead data, and increase outreach volume while improving lead quality using Clay. • Established performance visibility and accountability across departments with standardized metrics, dashboards, and operating cadences.

Designed and operated a pilot-stage tech education program focused on systems thinking, collaboration, and applied problem-solving. • Designed a multi-year, modular curriculum (grades 1–12) combining critical thinking, software fundamentals, AI concepts, and hands-on engineering projects. • Structured the program around open-source principles: project-based learning, teamwork, peer review, and iterative improvement. • Coordinated volunteer educators and counselors, delegated curriculum ownership, and maintained alignment on learning outcomes. • Researched national rollout constraints (regulatory access, school partnerships) and explored scholarship pathways with local colleges.

Led a discovery-stage accessibility project focused on real-time audio-to-sign-language translation. • Defined the product vision and system architecture for an AI-assisted avatar translating speech to sign language in real time. • Led end-to-end project execution: scope definition, milestones, sprint planning, and delivery sequencing. • Assembled and coordinated a cross-functional volunteer team (engineering, animation, IT, marketing). • Evaluated distribution paths and content expansion scenarios to inform prioritization and next steps.

Led onboarding & service operations in a high-volume support environment, improving training systems and team performance. • Onboarded and trained 30+ recruits, developed training materials and mentorship pipelines. Many mentees became top performers and advanced into leadership roles. • Handled 1,000+ tickets/month across chat/phone/back-office while maintaining 90%+ CSAT and sub-1-minute average response time. • Identified recurring customer issues, internally optimized workflows and reduce friction for better improved operations.

Operated mission-critical systems on a patrol warship safeguarding national maritime borders during active combat operations. • Managed radar, navigation, and communication systems for maritime operations while overseeing weaponry maintenance, ammunition inventory, and operational readiness. • Promoted to Senior Naval Operator, leading crew coordination during tactical maneuvers and emergency drills on board. • Developed crisis management and rapid decision-making capabilities in high-stakes environments.

Focused coursework in Software Engineering including Data Structures & Algorithms, Database Systems, Advanced Object-Oriented Programming, Software Testing & Quality Assurance, Requirement Engineering, Internet of Things (IoT), Geo Information Systems (GIS), Project Management, and Entrepreneurship. - Led peer teams in coding and design projects. Participated in multiple hackathons and technical presentations. Mentored classmates in modern development tools and workflows.

Completed comprehensive web development training focused on full-stack development fundamentals including JavaScript, React, Node.js, Express, MongoDB, HTML5, and CSS3. Built foundational skills in front-end and back-end development, API integration, and responsive design.
