I have had the pleasure of working closely with Otto for several years at Atomic Software. Otto is a consummate professional who exemplifies the qualities of kindness and humility in everything he does.
One of the standout projects we collaborated on involved creating a streamlined process for ingesting data into an application in a user-friendly manner. As a Content Engineer, he played a pivotal role in implementing this process using Oxygen XML. His attention to detail, desire to understand the technical aspects of the process, and his ability to communicate effectively in technical and non-technical ways was instrumental in its success.
Furthermore, Otto's dedication and expertise were evident in his contributions to adding and organizing content in Directus CMS. His approach ensured that the process was not only efficient but also thoroughly documented for our client, resulting in the delivery of a high-quality solution.
Most recently, Otto played an integral role in our efforts to enhance accessibility expertise within the team. He provided invaluable support by conducting thorough research and collaborating closely with the team to develop comprehensive internal documentation, empowering the Atomic team to become accessibility experts.
Beyond his technical prowess, Otto is a joy to work with. His positive attitude, willingness to collaborate, and genuine concern for the well-being of his colleagues make him a valuable asset to any team.
I wholeheartedly recommend Otto for any role that values professionalism, expertise, and a genuine passion for making a difference.

I had the pleasure of working with Otto on a collection of web-based educational games. He worked closely with the developers on the project to structure and organize content of various formats, stewarding the process of bringing content into Directus CMS for the games to consume. He also managed data ingestion and organization as the content base changed and expanded over the course of the project. He worked to facilitate clear, transparent, and accessible cross-team communication. He was easy to collaborate with and his commitment to ensuring high quality will surely be valuable to any team fortunate enough to have him.

“Otto is both incredibly fun to be around and highly efficient with his work. His content engineering knowledge was pivotal in helping us get a CMS up and running for one of our most demanding client projects, and he led the effort in getting the client’s inhouse team familiar with a technology that they had never used before, which smoothed the transition process when it was time to hand the project over.”

“I have had the privilege of working with Otto Carbajal since 2016 across three companies. Our latest collaboration centers on content engineering, a position that focuses on the delivery of content and assets from authoring to publishing.
This partnership has enabled us to look at the entire content lifecycle and provide solutions and recommendations for clients that exceed initial requirements and expectations. Otto has helped provide elegant content and asset workflow and process solutions on platforms like:
• Alfresco’s CMS/DAM leveraging asset delivery from the Box SaaS
• Listening to Learn - Oxygen XML Editor for authoring
• Reading Reimagined - Directus CMS (as an Authoring and content delivery proof of concept)
As I’ve stated in the past, Otto has influenced my thinking regarding content from the document level to the component level. He always strives to find efficiencies in productivity and content delivery. This makes brainstorming solutions with Otto a refreshing and exciting undertaking.
In closing, I can confidently recommend Otto as an asset to any team that has the goal of providing innovative, efficient, refreshing, and exciting solutions to any undertaking.
