The mind behind Thetis

Noam Josephides

Noam Josephides is an award-winning and bestselling author, screenwriter and director. He is also a serial technology entrepreneur with numerous successful companies founded, and a past as an Air Force Captain.

Noam's love for speculative writing and science fiction began with the genre classics he read in his childhood - from Asimov and Heinlein to Clarke and Douglas Adams.

His scientific enthusiasm for space led him to pursue studies in astrophysics and aviation, and his prose combines deep technological and scientific knowledge with a unique focus on human drama, values and personal journeys.

Noam spends his time between leading artificial intelligence product development at the world's top technology firms, and writing novels, screenplays and fake Tooth-Fairy letters for his 3 young kids.
