SAIM Team Snapshot: John Succo

IoT drives the connection between the physical and digital worlds. An effective IoT solution is critical to SAIM, as bringing in real-time signals from different fuel storage equipment provides users with a more wholistic picture. Not only does it share the larger view, but it also allows users to take a step farther and analyze data to improve operations and prevent issues and failures.

As the Director of IoT, John is looking forward to the positive impact he can make using today’s constantly evolving technology and his background as a software engineer.

“I’m particularly excited to use data coming from onsite equipment to create AI neuro-net models [i.e., machine learning] to do things like predict failures and take preventative maintenance measures in a more intelligent way,” he says.

John joins SAIM from Growlink, where he built an IoT platform that created control solutions for industrial greenhouses. He is excited to be back in the energy/fueling industry — in college, he studied energy efficiency and modeling energy systems — especially at this time of growth when there is a lot of change with cloud platforms and leveraging technology to find or improve solutions.

At SAIM, we are working to make the IoT deployment process more easily repeated, packaged and scaled. As John puts it, “We’re leveraging the very latest technologies in IoT and AI to make it easier for users to make informed decisions.”
