Samuel Vargas Joins the Cesium Development Team

I’m thrilled to announce Samuel Vargas has moved from Arizona to Philadelphia to join our development team.

Samuel studied Informatics at Arizona State University. While at ASU, he interned at Mozilla where he contributed to Firefox’s WebGL rendering engine. More recently, he worked at Connexta, a defense contracting firm in Phoenix, Arizona.

Samuel brings a passion for GPU programming and optimization that will go towards defining the next generation of 3D Tiles. In the process he will touch almost every aspect of our 3D Tiling Pipeline and CesiumJS loader, as well as contributing to the 3D Tiles specification.

Welcome, Samuel!
