Jorge Pico is a seasoned engineering leader and senior software developer with 14 years of experience building high-throughput, fault-tolerant backend systems and leading teams from Gijón, Spain. Currently Supervisor Engineer and Technical Lead at Erlang Solutions, he combines hands-on Erlang/OTP expertise (optimizing payment gateways and messaging systems to thousands of TPS) with people-centered management practices like Radical Candor, peer-driven career ladders, and structured growth coaching. His earlier work spans large-scale services at Telefónica and real-time chat architectures for Tuenti/Inditex, plus research roles applying NLP and machine learning in academia. Comfortable at the intersection of code, infrastructure and linguistics, Jorge holds advanced studies in both computer science and linguistics and has shipped production services that blend scalability with careful testing and deploy automation. Colleagues know him for turning ambiguous problems into measurable improvements—whether cutting queue bottlenecks, introducing property-based testing, or inventing new internal roles to close organizational gaps.
