Roberto Ostinelli

Hello! I’m Roberto Ostinelli.

I've been using Erlang professionally for more than a decade, building massively scalable systems.

I’m a musician, photographer, Erlanger and Rubyist. I have been professionally active in a variety of fields, more specifically in the research, development and integration of the multiple technologies behind the creation of ubiquitous computing. I’m fond of agile practices focused on test-driven development, pair programming, short development cycles and continuous verification and integration of code, and more in general the development methodology known as Extreme Programming.

Investing in the Internet of Things, I’ve been co-founder and CTO of the company WideTag Inc, one of the first ever Internet of Things company, back in 2009, and in the last years Director of Cloud Services at Neato Robotics.

I currently consult to help companies achieve their connectivity goals by architecting and implementing their infrastructure and protocols, and I train developers to build massively scalable systems with Erlang and Elixir, by ensuring the adoption of TDD and Agile methodologies.
