Cody Averett

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience in designing and delivering scalable applications across enterprise and cloud platforms. My career has been marked by a proven success in leading cross-functional teams, mentoring developers, and optimizing workflows to enhance productivity. I am a strong advocate for clean architecture and continuous delivery, believing that empowering teams through mentorship and automation is key to achieving excellence in software development.

At Viasat Inc, I enhanced inflight connectivity and entertainment systems by building robust data streaming and ELT pipelines, significantly improving test coverage and reducing production regressions. My previous role at Walmart as a Staff Software Engineer allowed me to lead the full-stack development of data-driven applications, where I designed and deployed CI/CD pipelines that improved team velocity. I take pride in my ability to maintain critical production systems and create internal tools that ensure data reliability, all while fostering a culture of knowledge sharing through technical presentations and comprehensive documentation.

Throughout my career, I have been deeply involved in mentoring junior engineers and leading onboarding initiatives. I co-founded a bi-weekly internal frontend support group at Walmart, which has been instrumental in improving user experience across internal platforms. My commitment to continuous learning and community involvement drives me to regularly present at technical forums, sharing insights and fostering an inclusive environment for all developers.
