Chris Justus, Software Director Alcea Technologies Inc. cjustus@alceatech.com

Chris' focus on client/server technologies for the past ten years makes him a perfect fit for the Alcea Team.

Chris has witnessed a variety of software development practices in his experience with large clients, such as Nortel Networks and Bell Canada and smaller clients, such as Big Words and Spidertop. In his latest role, Chris acted as a build/configuration prime, responsible for the delivery of many software projects and frequently interfacing with the QA team and the end-customer/client.

"A quality issue management and tracking tool is so important to the software development process - second only to using a source code repository. After having worked on five consecutive projects for clients, none of which were using a real issue management tool -- I felt that there was a real market need for a tool that was affordable to large and small teams, and that could be easily deployed into a development environment in which most team members were already working 110 per cent. Following conversations with Sue Norton, another founder of Alcea Technologies with 15 years of QA experience, we felt we could develop a superior product, and provide a market leading solution."

Prior to co-founding Alcea Technologies Inc., Chris cofounded Magma Communications, the largest independent Internet service provider in Ottawa in 1995. At Magma, Chris developed the Chat Server - a Web-based chat engine, and L'Hotel Chat - one of the largest chat sites on the Internet in 1996.

Chris' wife makes Chris spend most of his free time with her and their two young children. This makes it hard to really concentrate on the art of brewing good beer.
