Carlos E. Carrillo Ochoa
Software Engineer and Director of Software Engineering in Zapopan, Jal., México
I am a Principal Software Development Engineer at Microsoft with over two decades of experience driving technological innovation and engineering excellence. My journey began in Zapopan, Jalisco, where an early passion for problem-solving led to award-winning projects in organic waste sustainability and multiple podium finishes in the Mexican Olympiad in Informatics.
Throughout my career, I have evolved from a hands-on developer at global firms like Bank of America and Tata Consultancy Services to a strategic leader. As a former Director of Software Engineering, I scaled and mentored a team of 90+ engineers, overseeing a $250M+ portfolio. I hold a Master’s in Project Management (GPA 9.53/10) and a Bachelor’s in Computer Systems Engineering with CENEVAL academic excellence honors. I am dedicated to bridging the gap between complex engineering and high-impact business results.
