Carlos Núñez is an entrepreneurial software leader and founder with nine years of hands-on engineering experience and a long track record building web, hosting, and e-commerce businesses from Seville. He currently leads multiple ventures including Digital Media Group, UPcommerce, and hostpania.com, and recently founded the nonprofit SOS.ong, blending product-building with civic impact. Technically versatile, he contributes to systems-level open source—fixing cross-platform compiler and time-type issues in the nanovms/nanos kernel—and to full-stack projects like TrueBlocks where he improved testing, cross-platform builds, and developer documentation. Comfortable shifting between C-level strategy and low-level code, he reliably navigates compatibility and infrastructure challenges that many founders outsource. His academic background in computer science (UNED) underpins a pragmatic approach to shipping maintainable systems. A distinctive strength is pairing entrepreneurial drive with deep familiarity of platform internals, enabling both business growth and the occasional kernel patch.
