Steve Tuecke cofounded the Globus Alliance, originally known as the Globus Project, with Dr. Ian Foster and Dr. Carl Kesselman. He was responsible for managing the architecture, design, and development of Globus software, as well as the Grid and Web Services standards that underlie it. Tuecke was Univa's first CEO, leading the company through its first round of funding and beta product release.

He began his career in 1990 as a software engineer for Foster in the mathematics and computer science division at Argonne National Laboratory. In 1995, Tuecke helped create the Distributed Systems Laboratory at Argonne which, under his management and technology leadership, became the premier Grid research and development group in the world. In 2001, Tuecke focused on Globus architecture and design, creating Grid and Web Services standards, and expanding corporate relationships.

In 2002, Tuecke received Technology Review magazine's TR100 award, which recognized him as one of the world's top 100 young innovators. The same year, he also was named to Crain's Chicago Business "Forty Under 40" and described as one of the Chicago area's "best and brightest." In 2003, he was named (with Foster and Kesselman), by InfoWorld magazine as one of its Top 10 Technology Innovators of the year.

Tuecke graduated summa cum laude with a B.A in mathematics and computer science from St. Olaf College.
