Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Varga is a senior storage systems engineer and seasoned geospatial software architect with 13+ years of experience and a multi-decade career building the online mapping and remote sensing infrastructure that underpins modern Earth observation services. He currently works on ZFS storage at Oracle while also contributing systems engineering expertise to USGS’s National Map Viewer, blending low-level storage reliability with large-scale geospatial delivery. His background spans pioneering web-based mapping (early Landsat/Ikonos services), satellite tasking/order systems, real-time GPS workflows, and asset management for utilities, reflecting deep experience across both application and infrastructure layers. Known for creative problem solving, he designs systems that marry packet-level delivery, IP security, and spatial data modeling to support high-volume imagery and telemetry. Based in Longmont, Colorado, he pairs a landscape-architecture foundation with hands-on software and systems work—a rare combination that informs his approach to surface/subsurface modeling and environmental R&D. Colleagues would note his history of integrating novel protocols and embedding metadata at scale, a pattern of tackling hard interoperability and performance challenges end-to-end.
