Cloud Engineer @ CVS Health
Cody York
Building reliable data
systems on GCP.
I design and operate data pipelines, AI compliance platforms, and cloud infrastructure at enterprise scale — and write openly about making AI practical for everyone.
// currently
Leading: An AI Model Inventory platform at CVS Health — ingesting enterprise AI models and running automated compliance checks to make sure they meet our team's AI standards.
Building: Expanding The Prompt Kitchen with more practical AI guides — real techniques for real tasks, no hype required.
Thinking about: The gap between AI governance on paper and what it takes to actually implement it at enterprise scale — tooling, process, and the humans in the middle.
🏆 Placed 3rd: CVS Health company hackathon — built DriftGuard in 24 hours using Claude AI. An AI skill that detects environmental drift in GCP deployments and automatically scans for pytest, pylint, sqlfluff issues and company code standards. See the project →
🏆 Awarded: Named a Champions AI Winner (Q2 2026) at CVS Health for leveraging AI tools like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot to optimize engineering workflows and elevate software delivery.
🎓 Certified: Completed the CVS AI Coder Certification (June 2026) — validating expertise in enterprise AI-assisted software development, prompt engineering, and secure coding practices.
Featured project
Something I built
This is the side project that makes the most sense given everything else about me.
⭐ Sister site · Live
The Prompt Kitchen
A free, no-nonsense knowledge base about using AI practically — written for people who want to actually get things done, not people who want to talk about AI getting things done. No jargon, no hype, no "the future is now" preamble. Just techniques that work.
