Jose Jimenez, president of CSC’s North American Public Sector Strategy and Development division, was honored for his leadership in the IT industry by both Hispanic Engineer and Information Technology (HE&IT) magazine and the Hispanic IT Executive Council (HITEC).

HE&IT magazine ranked Jimenez in the Most Important Hispanics in Technology list for 2008. Editors researched and evaluated thousands of employees from 100 candidate companies and then ranked the highest-achieving Hispanic executives, technologists and researchers in industry, government and academia who demonstrated leadership on a broad front in the workplace and in their communities. Jimenez was honored during the Most Important Hispanics in Technology dinner in Dallas, Texas, on Oct. 24.

Jimenez was also selected as one of this year’s top 100 IT executives by HITEC, a council founded by senior Hispanic executives who have built outstanding careers in IT and have a strong desire and passion to make an impact within the Hispanic community.

“These honors reflect Jose’s commitment to both the information technology and Hispanic communities,” said James W. Sheaffer, president of CSC’s North American Public Sector line of business. “With more than 30 years of experience spanning both the public and private sectors, Jose brings deep knowledge and extensive expertise to his leadership of our public sector’s strategy and development function.”
