Employee Spotlight: Dmitri Bagh
FME Scenario Creation and Testing Analyst – Joined Safe Software in January 2005
What is your role here at Safe?
I probably have the best job: the freedom to test and play around with new enhancements and updates to FME before they become available to the public. It’s like playing a video game, but better!
How did this “test and play” work for defining LiDAR capabilities in FME 2011?
After gathering input from users, I mocked up workspaces that reflected common scenarios. I then worked closely with our development team to create solutions that addressed these scenarios and the needs of our users to allow them to use FME with their LiDAR data.
Do you have any hobbies?
I’m an avid photographer and recently learnt to play the piano – I love playing jazz and bossa nova.
Photography and travel go well together – do you enjoy traveling too?
Yes, very much. Recently my family and I toured Chile where I took some amazing photos, including shots in the Atacama Desert, the driest desert in the world.
