The Data Observatory is a non-profit at the heart of industry, government and science collaboration with the vision to be at the vanguard of data-centric innovation, leading in the production of data-centric solutions, talent, and social capital.

The first step to implement the DO is a Data Access Center for the Atacama Large Millimiter/submillimiter Array (ALMA). ALMA is the most important submillimetric astronomical observatory in the world, imaging planetary systems early in their formation and being a critical asset in producing the first-ever image of a black hole. We will create a system to distribute 1 TB of ALMA data per night across continents and providing HPC for scientists to produce knowledge, and access tools for wider audiences beyond astronomers to benefit from this amazing resource in the cloud.

We invite you to lead a team of DOers with the responsibility of creating a robust and strong foundation for this initiative to solve global challenges from Chile.
