I’ve worked with Cody Kimball on a contractor basis at two different organizations where I’ve held a position as a Director in IT, focusing primarily on integrations and databases. He has always seemed to have impeccable timing on knowing when I need the most help, and substantially helped with an Integration platform migration at one company and gave us a huge boost in productivity relating to integration project management and execution at another. It is always easy to work with Cody due to his friendly demeanor and ability to work within any technical stack that the companies I have worked for have used, which leaves us a ton of assets to reference that are clean and well-documented.

I cannot express how impressed I am with his skills, work ethic and overall approach. From start to finish, his commitment to excellence and proactive mindset are truly exceptional. One of the standout qualities is his vigilance. Throughout each project, he demonstrated a remarkable attention to detail, leaving no stone unturned to ensure that every aspect was taken care of e.g. error handling and scaling. His thoroughness in understanding the requirements and nuances of each project sets him apart. It is evident that he takes great pride in his work and is genuinely dedicated to delivering top-notch projects.

A true leader in every sense, Cody took charge of one particular project from the get-go. He orchestrated the various moving parts like vendors with API inconsistencies and ever-changing requirements from stakeholders with finesse and followed-up on loose ends. He came up with creative solutions when encountering road blocks. This leadership undoubtedly played a pivotal role in the project's success.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Cody to anyone seeking a data or integration contractor who goes above and beyond! His vigilance, easygoing nature, project leadership, and exceptional problem-solving skills makes him a standout in his field. Without a doubt, I will be reaching out to him for any future integration needs.

Project: Scraping Indeed.com, ZipRecruiter, TeachersTeachers and delivering results in CSV to an FTP server

I was contracted to use a tool (Mozenda) to systematically scrape ESPN for NFL, NBA, MLB, College Football & Basketball, and NHL data going back a couple years, as well as going forward.

The project went really well, despite ESPN changing their website structure after running smoothly for several months.

Project: Create a deliverable for clients to use, monitor and easily tweak if needed to pull desired ESPN data, and host that data on client's website for users to download.

"Cody did a terrific job designing and coding the backend of our web application. He was attentive to detail, intuitive, creative, thorough and professional. All in all, a great experience. I highly recommend Cody for web-work!"
