#MeetOurTeam – Hector

What does a typical workday look like to you?

My main task is to interact with customers to help them pinpoint which technology, data management strategy, or geoscience software will improve their geology, geophysics, and reservoir engineering workflows.

So, much of my time is dedicated to achieving that objective. For example, that involve technical sessions with clients, and working on workflows with our tools to answer the specific question of the customers. 

Also, plan the strategy to introduce and expand our footprint in new countries, tailoring our solutions to the market requirements.

Which technologies do you work with?

I spend most of my time working with our portfolio geoscience software. Currently, I will say that the tools that I am working on the most are Blueback Project Tracker, Cegal Prizm, and Blueback Investigator. But this could change depending on the market request.

What drives you at work and in your role, what's fun?

It is impossible to get bored. From customer meetings and demo sessions of our geosciences software to Python or SQL coding hours, and building PowerBI dashboards, here in Cegal, I can put into practice my expertise as a Geoscientist, also my knowledge of Data Science, to drive innovation and navigate the digital transformation in the energy sector.
 
How exciting sounds that?

Speaking of PowerBI reports - you have created some exciting reports, can you say something more about it?

Thanks for asking that question, I love to do data visualization with Blueback Investigator or PowerBi. With PowerBi, I created several dashboards using as input the Salesforce database. The objective was the identification of our markets by region and product category. By clustering this data we can identify areas where we can improve the services and products delivered to our clients and plan our marketing strategy for example.

A customer-centric approach is a key to achieving client engagement and increasing customer satisfaction. Some of our geoscience software are in a niche market that can vary depending on the geological and tectonic setting of the basin, for that reason we focus our efforts tailoring our demos to address the challenges of our clients in their regions.

Finally, a dashboard is a fantastic tool where the manager, the marketing team, and sales people can do brainstorming, and accomplish our mission to be a leading tech company in the energy sector.

What is your favorite quote?

Is there anything else we should know about you?

I am very keen on disruptive technologies like blockchain and their ecosystem and new development in that sector. Also, I am passionate about data in all forms from sports analytics to finance analytics of Stock Exchange or sentimental analysis from social media all combine to try to understand a bit about the world we are living in.
