Vedran Bolfek, head of IT department at RGO Communication Ltd. is a Master of Sciences in Computing with 8 years of professional experience in the field. Within the scope of his first job at Inland Navigation Development Centre Ltd., Vedran was involved in the early RIS implementation project in Croatia – CroRIS, as system designer and lead programmer. All his subsequent professional advancement was related to utilization of information and communication technologies in the transport sector, either as a system designer, programmer or expert team leader.
In the role of the AIS expert (Automatic Identification System), Vedran was involved in CB-RIS project implementation, design and implementation of software solutions for the Slovak AIS network, design and implementation of DGNSS support for the Slovak AIS network, AIS system implementation on the Seine in France, as well as RIS implementation on the Danube in Bulgaria.
Vedran was also team leader and designer of the ERI application, the Gateway application for the purpose of international RIS data exchange, the programmer of NtS application (Notices to Skippers) migration to 1.2 standard version, as well as NtS web service 2.8 NtS-WS standard version. He also designed and programmed web interface of the AIS system in Croatia for commercial users.
He is a member of NtS and ERI expert groups which are leading institutions of European RIS development, both upgrade of existing and development of new services.
Having extensive professional experience in the field of system design and software development, Vedran demonstrates skills and knowledge in numerous development tools and programming languages (Java, C#.NET, ASP.NET, PHP, Python, SQL), as well as relational databases (PostgreSQL, Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL).
Vedran represents the driving force behind the IT department of three.
As could be expected of an IT guy, he spends all his free time in front of the computer, with due exceptions of playing the beloved game of football.
