Top SchoolCarlos Toxtli is an Assistant Professor and multidisciplinary technologist with two decades of experience spanning software engineering, HCI research, tech leadership, entrepreneurship, and developer evangelism. He combines academic rigor—PhD-level research on bot-mediated systems and human-centered computing—with hands-on engineering, having built production chatbots, backend integrations (including a WhatsApp bot plugin set) and large-scale education and e‑government platforms. Carlos has led tech teams as CTO and co-founder across startups and enterprises, shipped automation for millions of devices in national programs, and translated research into deployed tools at Microsoft and Snap. Comfortable moving between research and product, he designs systems that blend conversational AI, security-aware social engineering studies, and practical DevOps, and he actively supports developer communities through GitHub and Campus Expert work. A pragmatic innovator, he pairs an entrepreneurial MBA with deep technical breadth to turn complex social-technical problems into deployable solutions.
