Our paths with Joe crossed in 2000, when he moved to the ALMA project at ESO. There he played an essential role in leading the team that defined the overall ALMA software architecture. He became Deputy to the European Manager of the ALMA Computing IPT (Integrated Product Team (IPT), before being appointed acting head of the team in November 2010.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”143.8px” custom_margin=”|auto|6px|auto|false|false” custom_padding=”||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”left” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]”Joe I would rank in the top five most influential people in ALMA software as a whole.

Seg\u00fan Jorge Ibsen<\/strong>, our Head of Computing, “He was a mentor to many of us who were part of the ALMA construction team in computing, always challenging and motivating us to push the limits of what was possible. He was a colleague, a mentor and, most importantly, a very good friend. I was very lucky to work with him and learn from him.

\u201cJoe ten\u00eda una fe asombrosa en el progreso posible gracias a la tecnolog\u00eda y en la perfectibilidad del software que produjimos. Normalmente ganamos en cinismo con la edad, pero Joe s\u00f3lo coleccionaba nuevos entusiasmos. Fue un colega cercano y un buen amigo durante casi 20 a\u00f1os. Siempre ten\u00eda los mejores motivos y normalmente obten\u00eda buenos resultados.
