Warren Genik

Full-stack developer, multi-drone pilot, and data hoarder

Warren is a co-founder and CTO of Green Aero Tech. Boasting a strong background in programming and IT, Warren began coding at a young age and is now a full stack developer - with solid skills in developing APIs, managing large scale data operations, and creating scripts for automating data processing. Now with both his parents working for him as drone pilots since 2021, as well as his sons as pilot trainees, Warren is proud to have a unique 3rd-generation family of UAV operators! Beyond his technical expertise, Warren also has a background in finance and boasts exceptional communication and relational skills. Since 2004 Warren has founded several successful startups including Echo Labs, a sister-company to Green Aero Tech that specializes in both UAV and manned aerial acquisition of Hyperspectral data for mining, forestry, agriculture, and many more uses. Echo Labs works with large multinational oil and gas producers and mining groups in conjunction with aerial patrol groups and engineering services firms to leverage remote sensed (Satellite to ground) Hyperspectral Imaging (VNIR, SWIR, MWIR, LWIR) to identify and quantify thousands of materials on the ground, in the air and on the water. Echo Labs is advancing “methane plus" material identification, including total petroleum hydrocarbons in soils and water, greenhouse gasses (CH4, CO2) and beyond such as hydrogen and VOCs. In the mineral extraction space, we are advancing mineral identification and chemistry along with pathfinder gasses and vegetation for mineral deposits in overburdened zones.
