Wed Jan 28 2026
On today’s episode, we’re joined by Kody Peterson, whose previous roles include work on large-scale systems at Walt Disney Company, leadership at multiple startups, and mobile product development in the golf technology space. He is currently Director of Software Engineering for Digital Studio at Foresight Sports, where he leads teams building high-performance software experiences for athletes and coaches. Kody discusses engineering leadership, cross-platform development, and pushing the boundaries of 3D and data-driven visualization. We also explore how Kody blends hardware, software, and user experience to create precise, intuitive tools for golfers; why Flutter became foundational to their mobile strategy; and how Kody’s team brought fully interactive 3D models into their app. Key Takeaways:
00:00 Introduction.
02:48 Kody entered tech through an education job, learning large-scale systems.
10:36 Foresight tracks ball and clubhead data, visualizing it to support learning.
16:20 The team shifts from React Native to Flutter for better performance and control.
