Alexander Perry received his PhD and Masters in Engineering from the University of Cambridge, England. While with Rank Xerox Engineering Group and EuroPARC (now Xerox Research Centre Europe) in Cambridge, he twice received a Xerox Corporate Achievement Award for his pioneering work in user interface development and process simulation.

Dr Perry is a senior member of the IEEE. He provides technical assistance with real time signal processing and electronic instrumentation. He has published in various peer reviewed journals and through conference presentations.

He has recently been working on non-destructive testing and resilience of websites, Internet services, and datacenters, and delivered the keynote for the ninth Reliability, Availability, Maintainability (RAM IX) conference.

He prefers Debian's GNU/Linux because the Project's development model provides effective mechanisms to deliver a high quality product using open source while mitigating supply chain risks for the business user.

Drawing on his signal processing background, he designed custom electronics and software for MRI, NMR and NQR applications ranging from industrial process control to humanitarian de-mining. He also engineered electromagnetic tensor gradiometry into new products for concealed weapon detection in public buildings and non-destructive evaluation.
