Carlos Zúñiga

Drupal Engineering Manager

Carlos is a web developer with a decade of experience working with Drupal, specializing in Drupal theming, and developing custom Drupal modules. As one of Kanopi’s Engineering Managers, he oversees the Drupal Support team.

Carlos enjoys the unique challenge of handling support requests: it allows him to be creative as he endeavors to implement the right solutions over the foundation on which the site was originally built. He has to adapt to the specifics of each site (modules, libraries, themes) and still come up with the best solution in a clean and time-efficient manner.

His daily activities vary widely as every site is different and comes with its own challenge. Beyond team management, his tasks range from fixing small bugs to implementing new features, building new sections on a site, fixing errors, applying updates, and/or building new sections on their sites to improve the user experience — anything a site requires to become or keep being an important part of a client’s business.

Carlos also appreciates working with an incredibly talented team full of nice people that he enjoys having around, even if only virtually.

Outside of work, Carlos loves drumming, working out, going to the movie theater, walking and playing with his dog, reading, and listening to audiobooks.
