> Founder & engineering leader with cross-stage product and engineering experience, twice acquired. Building something new in San Francisco.

Mor Sela is an engineering leader in San Francisco. He is currently building something new, still in stealth.

Before founding Cardinal he was Sr. Director of Engineering at Epic Games, the maker of Fortnite and Unreal Engine, which he joined through its acquisition of Houseparty, where he ran mobile engineering. Earlier he was an Engineer in Residence at Aleph VC, Director of R&D at Docady, and a special projects manager and team leader in the Israeli military's Unit 8200.

## Career

### Stealth

_Founder · 2026 – Present_

Early days on something new in San Francisco. Too early to name; not too early to talk — especially if you're the founding-engineer type.

Joined through the acquisition, then ran the group that turned Cardinal into Miro Insights.

### Cardinal (YC W23)

## About this page

morsela.co is a personal site drawn as an isometric studio that builds itself over time: the page opens on a blueprint in 2007 and every chapter of Mor's career is an object that is drawn in as line work and rendered solid the year it happened — Miro is a whiteboard covered in stickies, Cardinal its logo propped on the desk, Epic Games a TV paused mid-match, Houseparty a phone on the coffee table mid group call, and a shelf of notes holds the writing. A scrubber under the room rewinds the clock. This page lists the same career in plain text, so people without JavaScript — and the agents that read the web — get it too.

This Markdown is the same content the HTML page renders. It is served from
