A Google Maps engineer that reportedly worked on bringing accurate map data to the platform is on his way to Microsoft, according to a new report.
TechCrunch reported on Thursday that Raj Shah, a Google Maps engineer, has moved on to Microsoft, where he will presumably work with the company on Bing Maps. According to TechCrunch, Microsoft confirmed his hire to its reporter.
Shah's LinkedIn page still lists his title as Engineering Director at Google. He started with the search company in March 2006.
CNET has contacted Microsoft to confirm Shah's hire. We will update this story when we have more information.
