The whole world,
empowered.
Our mission is to enable people to harness
the power of computing everywhere.
Computing is one of the greatest revolutions in human history. Yet, it remains out of reach for half the planet. We created Endless OS – a free and robust computing solution – so people everywhere have access to relevant information and technology.
Our goal is to build a global platform for digital literacy.
What happens when a billion people get computers?
Our Research
Endless products have been designed with our users in emerging markets. Over years of research, we encountered thousands of ways in which today's technology fails to meet the needs of our users. We keep our ear to the ground to ensure that what we build does.
Our Team
We are small, but global, with our feet planted in 17 countries. We’ve assembled a world-class team across design, software, hardware, and operations – united in one goal to make computing available for users everywhere.
Be part of our team. Explore Endless Opportunities.

Matt Dalio
CEO & Chief of Product
After living in China for a year as a child, Matt founded China Care Foundation at the age of 16 to offer orphaned children a brighter future.

China Care also supports over 60 high school and college clubs where thousands of students have been able to run community service programs, fundraise, and volunteer at the China Care medical home in Beijing, China. Matt was honored as one of Oprah Winfrey’s “People Changing the Lives of Children Around the World”, was one of Teen People’s “20 Teens Who Will Change the World”, and is the youngest recipient of the Fulbright Award for furthering peace and international understanding. In founding China Care, Matt fell in love with the process of building organizations of consequence.
After graduating from Harvard in 2006, Matt launched The Issue, an online media venture aimed at curating the best of the blogosphere. After merging The Issue into PBS’s world news program, Matt joined Harbor Point, one of the east coast’s largest urban renewal projects to revitalize the waterfront of Stamford, Connecticut.

Jonathan Blandford
VP, Engineering
Jonathan became intrigued by the possibilities of free and open source software as a college student. He fell in love with the community and its mission, and started avidly following it in his spare time. When the GNOME project was announced, whose mission was to bring free and accessible computing to everyone, he eagerly started writing software for it. He developed a solitaire game that is still in use today. After finishing his degree in Computer Science at MIT, Jonathan joined the Red Hat Advanced Development labs in North Carolina to work on the GNOME Project full-time. There, he learned how to build a desktop, be part of a global community, and love Eastern Carolina barbecue.
He continued as an engineer there for five more years before stepping up as manager of the Red Hat Desktop team. He led their diverse and multinational team for the next decade to create the desktop that we know today. A strong driver in the Linux desktop space, the Red Hat Desktop team has been responsible for producing many of the key technologies that define Linux.
Jonathan left Red Hat to join Twitter and led the team working on Mesos, a distributed systems kernel, and other cloud computing solutions. While these are open source software projects, Jonathan found himself missing the extended community involvement that had surrounded him while at Red Hat. He found himself longing to return to his first love: the democratization of access to computing.
For Jonathan, moving to Endless was a matter of following his heart. At Endless, Jonathan uses his vast experience to lead our software development team and help to grow them beyond their current reach.

Alejandro Farfán
General Manager, Central America & Caribbean
Alejandro was born and raised in Guatemala, and grew up being inspired by the stories his grandmother told him about her struggle through poverty and even homelessness. At an early age, Alejandro decided that he wanted to do whatever he could to help level the playing field for people in his country.
Alejandro graduated from Guatemala’s most prestigious private university, Universidad Francisco Marroquín (UFM), in 2001 with a BA in Business Administration, a minor in Finance, and a deeply entrepreneurial spirit. He later won a scholarship to attend IE Business School in Spain and get his MBA. While Alejandro appreciates having had the opportunity to pursue an academic background, he believes that he has learned far more from people - like his coworkers, people in farms, customers and suppliers - than he ever did at school. He is motivated by the satisfaction of working on initiatives he is passionate about, and has lead teams at multinational organizations as well as at his own entrepreneurial adventures helping bring about social change.
For the five years before joining Endless, Alejandro worked on building his own startup, Grupo Premiere 360, all while keeping his eye out for an opportunity that could revolutionize the world. He knew he wanted to contribute to more than just his own country’s success, since his travels had led him to places where he saw the depths of inequality in the world, and he wanted to help change this. And then he found Endless.
Alejandro launched Endless Guatemala, by hiring and managing an excellent team, and by applying his expertise in marketing to help us debut and sell our product.
