He served as a member of Pictometry's Board of Directors from 1998 to 2011 and currently oversees all of Pictometry's technological output.

Schultz's career in engineering, design and programming began in 1979 and then shifted to include imaging science when he went to work for the Chester F. Carlson Center for Imaging Science at the Rochester Institute of Technology in 1985. While there he wrote a wide range of software programs for a variety of applications including device drivers for image array processors, frequency domain analysis tools, and infrared image synthesis.

Schultz earned a bachelor's degree in computer science from the Rochester Institute of Technology and completed coursework and research for a master's degree in computational imaging. While working at the center, Schultz also taught computer programming to Computational Imaging and Imaging Science majors as an adjunct professor. In 2007, he was honored by RIT with the Distinguished Alumni Award for the B. Thomas Golisano College of Computing & Information Sciences.
