Youssef Victor Joins the Cesium 3D Team

We’re excited to welcome Youssef Victor to the Cesium 3D team.

With a background in both computer graphics and data science, Youssef brings a unique perspective to the team as we explore the intersection of machine learning and 3D geospatial. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Digital Media Design and a master’s degree in Data Science at the University of Pennsylvania. During his time there he was a teaching assistant for the GPU Programming course—twice! Youssef has experience with rendering on all platforms, including building one of the first physically based path tracers with Metal for iOS.

Youssef will be working on viewshed rendering in Cesium Analytics followed by visual quality improvements in CesiumJS. From there he’ll be involved in 3D Tiles Next and our growing number of runtime engines.

We’re excited to have him on the team. Welcome, Youssef!
