Bio

Hello there! My name is Carlos Tocino (Charlie Bacon for non-Spanish speakers). I've been in the software engineering industry for +8 years, delivering products and leading teams effectively. However, I've been building stuff (software and not software) for +14 years.

I'm graduated in computer engineering from University of Cádiz; and I'm currently working at DataBeacon as a Software Engineer in the core developer team where I'm focusing on Rust programming language 🦀.

I'm also vinyl collector (check my discogs!), lifelong gamer, meme lover and, in short, a geek. I use NeoVim, btw.
