Amen Zwa

Vice President of Engineering

Amen Zwa, who joined GTG in late 2006 as Vice President of Engineering, is an imagery and computer scientist with more than 20 years of software development experience. He began his life-long fascination with computers early in life. As a pre-teen, he began creating and selling record keeping software for small medical offices. Soon, he became interested in game design, 3-D computer graphics, and high-performance computing hardware.

Mr. Zwa earned his BS degree in Electrical Engineering in 1991, and immediately began a career as a software and hardware engineer. In 1996, he received his MS degree in Computer Science. As a graduate student, Mr. Zwa researched extensively and co-authored several papers in the then new research frontier of 3-D volumetric information visualization. After graduate school, he returned to the software industry. Over the past two decades, he has worked in numerous scientific and engineering disciplines including artificial intelligence, noise cancellation, cryptography, parallel processing, object-oriented design, and user interface design. He has also  managed a number of research and engineering programs.

Today, Mr. Zwa continues to contribute in scientific research, software engineering, and
technical management, and will oversee the image processing scientific research and the high level software engineering aspects of various projects.
