Corey Floyd is a product-focused engineering leader with 16 years of experience building and scaling distributed teams and platforms across open source, sports media, and startups. He led platform engineering at the Wikimedia Foundation powering 23B monthly page views and later scaled The Athletic’s engineering organization through its integration into The New York Times, helping the product reach profitability ahead of schedule. Comfortable from mobile app internals to large-scale infrastructure, he began as an iOS developer and has repeatedly driven higher developer velocity, DevOps observability, and cross-functional alignment. An organizer and builder, he grew teams globally, launched new infrastructure programs (Kubernetes, Kafka-backed events), and introduced engineering practices that halved incidents. He contributes to notable open-source tooling around mobile build/release processes (fastlane) and pairs a pragmatic, UX-rooted product mindset with coaching-led leadership. Based in Dillon, Colorado, he also teaches snowboarding—an unlikely but telling example of his focus on mentorship, clarity, and hands-on skill development.
