Diego Ocampo is a Senior Software Engineer based in Sydney with 11 years of experience building Java-heavy, full-stack systems and developer tooling across industry and academia. He currently ships software at Atlassian and has hands-on experience implementing interpreters and language tooling on GraalVM/Truffle from his research at Macquarie University. His master’s research translated WebAssembly into LLVM-IR to statically detect runtime traps, demonstrating a rare mix of systems, compilers and formal-methods expertise applied to practical benchmarks. Diego has a long history of teaching and mentoring—tutoring programming languages and reviewing Udacity projects—which informs a collaborative, mentorship-driven approach to engineering. He’s comfortable moving between legacy enterprise Java stacks and modern language runtimes, and he gravitates toward projects that combine rigorous correctness with real-world deployment. Outside work he stayed engaged with student-facing roles across two continents, a detail that underscores both his technical depth and commitment to developer education.
