Three founders. Multiple generations. One mission.
Coderic was conceived on February 6, 2002 by three engineers in Valencia, Venezuela. Over two decades, each generation of contributors has added depth to the ecosystem while preserving the founding principles.
Founding Generation — 2002
Eduardo Bravo
Co-Founder · 2002
One of the three original co-founders who conceived Coderic in Valencia, Venezuela. Part of the founding group that transformed the initial electronics education idea into a software organization.
José Cárdenas
Co-Founder · 2002
Co-founder of Coderic, part of the original trio. Contributed to the early vision of building an organization that combined technology training with practical engineering output.
Neftalí Yagua
Co-Founder · 2002
Co-founder and architect of the Coderic name — combining CODE and Erick in 2003 after inspiration from the Decabyte AI project. Defined the corporate acronym that still stands: Corporation Oriented to the Development of Engineering Resources and Information for Commerce.
Generations of Contributors
Coderic's history is multi-generational. Engineers who joined during the early 2004–2008 phase, the reactivation in 2015, and the current expansion phase have each left their mark on the organization.
The founding cohort that built the first infrastructure, attracted the early sponsors, and established the community radio and training platform. Survived the 2007 setbacks and defined what it means to be Coderic under adversity.
The reactivation cohort that rebuilt Coderic from the ground up after 2015 — redesigned portals, established the current seven-portal ecosystem structure, and brought the organization into the modern open-source engineering landscape.
Building the incubator, the OPM funding model, cloud infrastructure, fintech, and the LATAM expansion with Coderic SAS in Colombia. Writing the next chapter of a 21-year organization.
Become part of the next generation.
Coderic's team is open. If you share the values — open source, engineering excellence, transparency, and community — there is a place for you here.
