Welcome to the team, Joseph!

b.t.w., I didn't know you have a background in NLP. That skill may become handy soon. ;-)

Hi Everyone,

I'd like to welcome Joseph Allemendou to the Analytics team! We are really excited to get some of Joseph's calibre to help take our analytics work to the next level.

In his own words:

Joseph's experiences were mostly with private companies and almost always involved open source software. After a M.S. in Computer Science with a specialization in programming languages theory and a PhD in the Natural Language Processing and Dialog Systems fields, Joseph worked four years in Ireland. He spent two years at IBM learning and applying project management and process improvement methodologies, and two other years building a start-up to help English as a foreign language teachers find up-to-date teaching material. Then he moved back to France and worked for Criteo as a specialist in scalabilty for one year, and as a manager for another year. Lastly Joseph worked with Fotolia, where he built the analytics architecture and team. Working with the Wikimedia Foundation allows him to really apply his energy and skills in the direction he wish the world to move on.

Joseph is based in Brittany, France. Welcome Joseph!

-Toby
