Kevin Goldsmith’s Experience

• Engineering Manager

  Adobe Systems

  (Public Company; ADBE; Computer Software industry)

  June 2006 — Present (3 years 2 months)

  I manage the Adobe Image Foundation team including both senior development and white-box quality engineers. We use GPGPU and multi-core techniques to create image and video filters that can give our users the best possible experience with Adobe software. We also created the Pixel Bender language that is part of Flash, Photoshop and After Effects. In addition to my direct management duties, I also work closely with our IHV partners and standards bodies and I was the primary developer of the Pixel Bender Toolkit that shipped in Creative Suite 4 and on Adobe Labs.

• Owner

  (Online Media industry)

  January 1991 — Present (18 years 7 months)

  Unit Circle Media includes a record label, several web properties, and a paper and web magazine (published from 1992-1995). I am responsible for all business activities related to this part-time enterprise. While I have chosen not to grow this business beyond its current size, it has been (and remains) profitable.
