  • S10 Bonus: Adam Pisk, Bruntwork
    Sep 26 2024

    Adam Pisk lives in Sydney, Australia, and just turned 45. He has 5 year old twins, and at the time of this recording, had just taken them on a trip to explore theme parks. He enjoys good wine, good steak, and good people. And the best place you can get a steak? In his backyard on his pit. Outside of this, as he puts it, he is unfortunately one of those people that really enjoys their work. IE, considers it a hobby.

    Adam started his outsourcing journey in 2001, specifically in the manufacturing industry. He couldn't get the engineers he needed, and built an offshore engineering team. Once he got that working, he wondered what else he could outsource. Eventually, he offshored operations for a different company, and noticed all metrics improved. He then realized there is something to this.

    This is the creation story of Bruntwork.

  • S10 E4: Brendan Wood, SnapTrade
    Sep 24 2024

    In August of 2021, we interviewed Brendan Wood on the podcast to tell the creation story of Passiv. After the recording, the company decided to pivot into a new market, focusing on solving their biggest pain point for other platforms. They were running into the problems surrounding integrations into brokers. In fact, they were spending 80% of engineering time on integrations. People started to reach out to his team to ask if they could use the integrations... and they started ideating about making this its own product.

    This is the creation story of SnapTrade.

Thoughtful, thorough, and inspiring

I love learning how people create, and this podcast is all about how tech entrepreneurs build the many products we use every day. But it's about more than code and architecture and protocols--it's about team dynamics, family decisions, personal struggles--all of which have contributed to the making of some pretty cool products.

Listen to this podcast if you want to be both inspired and reminded of the struggle that lies ahead when you try to build something brand new.

Enjoy some great interviews!

Amazing Podcast!

Code Story surfaces the human stories from the tech builders themselves, about the "hammers and nails" used to create world class, disruptive technology - and how they walked through the journey to make it happen.

A podcast for and by tech entrepreneurs

Noah does a great job asking technologists questions about the hard stretches of road that got them to where they are today. He's selected a broad group of guests and topics. Very well produced and thought through.
