UK HPC provider OCF (about whom I’ve written before; for example, this article at HPCwire) has announced two new members to its board of directors

OCF plc, the UK’s premier HPC system integrator, demonstrates its ongoing commitment to providing customers with deep HPC technical skills, expertise and knowledge with the appointments of long-term employees Barry Evans, Technical Manager and Russell Slack, Engineering Manager to its Board of Directors.

…Working for OCF since 2002, Barry is Technical Manager responsible for pre-sales, solution architecture and technical strategy recommendations for OCF’s clients.  With an extensive background in systems engineering and systems management, Barry previously held positions with West Corporation, the U.S. Department of Defense and Utell International in the United States.

Russell is Engineering Manager working for OCF plc since 2002 and with its predecessor firm since December 1995.  Responsible for a team of six engineers; Russell has worked his way up from Trainee Engineer, UNIX System Engineer and Senior Engineer with OCF plc.  Russell oversees every part of customers’ post-sales installations which includes: coordinating delivery of customers’ orders to OCF for pre-installation quality testing purposes; investigating the most effective way of implementing solutions; coordinating the delivery and managing the installation of solutions at customers’ sites and the creation and agreement of ‘Statements of Work’ to ensure that the scope of work is clearly understood by all parties.
