Carlos Sanchez is a Principal Scientist with 21 years of experience building and scaling cloud-native services—most recently leading Kubernetes- and Envoy-based infrastructure for Adobe Experience Manager Cloud across global multi-cloud deployments. He combines deep hands-on engineering (author of the Jenkins Kubernetes plugin and significant contributions to projects like docker-java, Flagger, and the Kubernetes Java client) with a strong focus on developer experience, Continuous Delivery, and Progressive Delivery for large enterprises. A long-time open source leader and Apache PMC member, he has been shaping build tooling and CI/CD practices since the early Maven 2 days and coauthored one of the first books on Maven. Carlos excels at mentoring distributed, multicultural teams and translating open source components into enterprise-grade solutions. He’s equally comfortable debugging Istio VirtualServices as he is optimizing large-scale automated rollouts, and often surfaces non-obvious reliability gains by improving toolchain and pipeline behavior. Based in Galicia, Spain, he blends academic rigor with prolific OSS stewardship and conference advocacy.
