Paolo L. Scala

Paolo L. Scala

My passion for programming was born in the early 1990s. As a lucky owner of an Amiga 600, I fell in love with computer graphics thanks to the discovery of demoscene.

From 2005 to 2021 I worked as a developer in the public research sector (National Research Council and National Institute of Astrophysics), holding the position of technologist.

I was involved in a variety of national and international projects, and presented the results at conferences and symposia.

In parallel, I have pursued my passion for teaching as a subject tutor at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (computer science, Multimedia Writing Techniques) and at UniNettuno International Telematic University (computer networks, cloud computing, computer science, information management systems).

As of January 2022 I am Senior Developer at Yoast, working on the plugin itself and all its add-ons.
