Which role is Sofia Pernas playing on the Tracker series?

Sofia Pernas made her debut on Tracker season 1 episode 6 as the character of Billie Matalon, who's one of Colter Shaw's biggest rivals in the story.

In the episode, Billie is working on the same case as Colter. They have to find a missing racehorse named Argo and make sure that the animal qualifies for the first race in the Kentucky Derby. Both are seeking the reward for finding the horse, which is $250,000.

Billie and Colter spend the episode trying to trick and outplay each other to win the money. During the course of the plot, it was revealed that Colter and Billie worked together in the past, but one of them betrayed the other, leading to sour feelings that continued between the duo.

Sofia Pernas spoke about her process while acting and the nuances that went into portraying Billie. In an interview for Parade, the actress explained what happened with Colter and Billie in the past:

"I (Billie) kind of screwed him out of reward money. I skipped town. We were supposed to be two heads on one job, and I pulled the rug out. ... I mean, they bump into each other, but I played it like maybe she planned (it). I think what unfolds is really unexpected for (Billie)."

At the end of the episode, Billie and Colter resolve some of their differences and part on friendly terms. The ending also hints that Sofia Pernas might make more appearances as Billie later, but there has been no official confirmation about that from the showrunners yet.
