Welcome to our first-ever “Meet the Team” series! In this first edition, we’ll be shining the spotlight on Nico Gerpe, the Business Unit Lead for the Americas team at Erlang Solutions.
Nico discusses his role at Erlang Solutions, his latest explorations in the IoT and machine learning space and most importantly- fun Argentinian summer traditions!
What is your role at Erlang Solutions and where are you based?
My role is Business Unit Lead for the Americas team and I am based out of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
What are the current priorities for the Americas team? Are there any specific markets you are focusing on?
Our priorities are growing our practices related to IoT, ML and DevOps on top of our main consultancy area of business. Our services and products benefit customers the most when they have already begun their digital journey and face challenges with their current tech stack. We help them overcome these obstacles and support their growth.
Which specific areas of IoT and machine learning are you planning to explore?
With regards to IoT, we are quite flexible and knowledgeable in managing multiple distributed devices, securing connections and handling vast areas of intercommunication. When it comes to machine learning, we are focusing on data processing/learning and computer vision.
Have you noticed any recent changes in the IoT and machine learning markets that have caught your attention?
Machine learning is evolving beyond training models. It is a way to consolidate and share data from multiple sources, creating significant value. What captured my attention was that it naturally gave me the solution as to how our IoT and ML practices were connected, to provide a comprehensive solution to our customers.
Do you have any fun plans for summer?
Going to the beach for at least a week.
Are there any fun summer Argentinian traditions during summertime?
A commonly accepted plan for any given Sunday is to gather at a house and light up a barbecue while enjoying the swimming pool. Eat late lunch, around 2 pm ish, for about 2 hours starting with picada, which is a mix of sausages, fries, pickles and white bread. Then a proper lunch consisting of barbecued cow, pork and/or chicken meat with salad options. After eating for almost two hours, we have a round of coffee and go back to the swimming pool. To sit back again and eat cake, candies, cookies, etc for another hour or so.
That’s a wrap for our chat with Nico!
