Slytrunk

Slytrunk makes software applications for startups, sports, and media companies. Folks come to us with an idea, and we lead them through a process to nurture their vision and draw out something truly useful and intuitive. We make sure we build things right - elite engineering is at our core - but before that, we make sure we’re building the right things. Slytrunk was founded in 2009 by Shawn Robinson and Luke Wojewoda who met while working at Yahoo! Sports. One of our longtime clients described them as "the most product minded engineers he'd ever known"​. They also happen to be excellent engineers and set a high bar for what our clients have come to expect from the Slytrunk team. In 2015, Cory Mummery joined Slytrunk as CEO, after getting to know the team through our work with NFL Fantasy. He was previously a VP at the NFL, and at ESPN before that. Much of our team is spread throughout the US (we're excellent at remote collaboration), and we have a Product and Design Workshop in Encinitas, CA where we have excellent whiteboard markers.
