Code Story

Their tech. Their products. Their stories. In a tech startup, how do you get from an idea on the back of a napkin to a fully functioning product? Code Story is a podcast featuring tech leaders, reflecting the roads they travelled and the products they created. On the show, we interview tech visionaries, digging into the critical moments of what it takes to change an industry, and build (and lead) a team that has your back. Hosted by Noah Labhart, this show is a window into the digital startup world. In their own words, tech veterans share what it feels like to create a world class product, how to recover from critical mistakes, and how to scale your solution to the masses. This podcast is for the tech leader, CTO, CEO, developer, software architect, startup leader, disruptive visionary - or the curious minded individual, who wants to know what a builder goes through in creating world changing technology.

S5 Bonus: Shaun Cooley, Mapped


Shaun Cooley was born and raised in LA. His Mom worked at Xerox and his Dad was an auto mechanic... so needless to say, at an early age, he was pulling things apart electronically and mechanically.

He's an avid snowboarder, usually shredding some snow at Mammoth mountain, and a kite surfer. He says he is terrible at the latter, but he likes that the wind is doing most of the work for him. He also spent a ton of time on a pilots license, but it got put on hold when he got busy professionally.

At age 15, he went to work for Symantec, building internal websites. After some time, he got the opportunity to build an easter egg in Norton Systemworks for Windows. All in all, he spent 18 years at Symantec, before moving onto Cisco and joining the iOT side of the world.

During his time at Cisco, he started to see the the fragmentation of data in the industrial environment... so much so, that he set out to create the business intelligence layer, sitting on top of the the raw network of devices.

This is the creation story of Mapped.
