Trent Tinker Joins the Cesium Team as a Senior Technical Sales Manager

I’m very happy to welcome Trent Tinker to the Cesium team. Trent will work directly with existing and potential customers to help them understand how Cesium ion SaaS and Cesium ion Self-Hosted can meet their geospatial needs.

Trent has a passion for helping others and a unique blend of technical and business expertise focused on geospatial software development. Trent majored in Computer Science and was introduced to the geospatial world as an undergraduate at the College of Charleston. He immediately saw the benefits of connecting the two (Computer Science and GIS) and has spent the past two decades in the geospatial domain. 

Trent has spent most of his career working for geospatial product companies including Esri, Luciad, Hexagon US Federal, and now Cesium. Throughout his career, his focus has primarily been in the Defense and Aviation domains, helping government agencies and large system integrators build 2D/3D/4D geospatial solutions. 

Prior to joining Cesium, Trent worked for the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), supporting their nonprofit mission to ensure location information is Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). His passion for open standards and well built solutions is very much in line with our vision for the future of geospatial. 

Trent is also a mental health advocate and co-founded a mental health startup in 2020 that built WhiteFlag, an app that provides free anonymous peer to peer (1:1) support by connecting people in a critical time of need with other people who have been there too. 

Cesium continues to grow. To find your place on the team, check out our careers page.
