As SeeByte’s Sales Manager, Joe is responsible for the development of SeeByte’s commercial strategies and managing the marketing sales process within the company. He has been involved in developing smart solutions for the underwater vehicle industry for more than 10 years and continues to lend his engineering expertise to the team.

As part of this programme, he visited Sun Microsystems in California and worked with the Global Channel Strategy Group. He joined SeeByte as a founding member of the management team and initially led the development of navigation, sonar imaging and sonar processing tools.

Joe enjoys playing five-a-side football and likes to find time to jog, but struggles with it. He loves reading history books and has particular interests in Roman history, the Spanish Civil War and Genghis Khan. He also enjoys reading novels by his favourite authors Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Aravind Adiga.
