@mortenlarsen I'm not sure, a lot of the principles of system engineering seem to be caught up in academic papers, far away from practice. There are too many junk tutorials and such online where the noise-to-signal ratio is so lopsided it's hard to make heads or tails if you are just starting out. I think it leads back to the fundamentals of just proper engineering practice. It should be as simple as that but i'm not sure where the gaps lie or if this is less endemic and more related to geography; i'm in the Northeast US but while out on the West Coast of the US I find more competency. It's a tough issue but talking it out and having these sorts of conversations publicly I think is worth it. #devops #systemengineering

Do you want to collaborate in the system engineering efforts of the ALMA Observatory? We have a position for you!

She (or he) will support the System Engineering (SE) processes related to the different ALMA development projects, and thus I will have to collaborate with this person as part of the SE team.

More details, including position requirements, at our recruitment website.

Hey there, time for an introduction! I’m new to CalcKey (and CalcKey.social in particular), but not that new to the Fediverse, so this will not be my main profile for some time, but I’ll try to see if it can become that.

I’m half-astronomer, half-engineer, although the engineering part has been gaining more relevance with time.

I have worked for several observatories, among them the European Southern Observatory, the Square Kilometre Array Observatory, and since June 2022 the Joint ALMA Observatory.

The Joint ALMA Observatory just went through its 10th anniversary, and is ready now for its major overhaul: the Wideband Sensitivity Upgrade, which will change all the signal chain, including correlation and data processing, to get an huge multiple in speed gains for most projects, and at least a 4 times gain for most.

My role is to supervise the Systems Engineering efforts for all relevant subprojects, to make sure that a successful observatory upgrade is delivered which provides a lot of value to our community.

See you around!

ps. As my profile indicates, most of my activity will, anyway, happen at
@juandesant@astrodon.social. At least, for the time being!
