I am pleased to announce that Dmitry Brant joins WMF this week as a Software Engineer for the Mobile App Team!
Dmitry will be working remotely from Cleveland, OH, where he has lived ever since immigrating from Moscow, Russia many years ago. He joins the Wikimedia Foundation coming from a previous life in speech recognition software for use in military robots, UGVs, and medical devices, and an even earlier life in software for controlling welding equipment and industrial robotic cells.
Dmitry believes passionately in WMF's mission, and is excited to help enhance the Wikipedia user experience on mobile platforms.
In his spare time he creates software for digital forensics and data recovery [1]. In his other spare time, he's an avid guitar player, blogger, and mushroom forager.
Dmitry will work closely with Yuvi to further enhance the user experience for the upcoming native Wikipedia app.
Please welcome Dmitry!
