Julio Avalos is an American business executive, attorney, and public intellectual. According to the Wall Street Journal, Avalos has "helped shape the social phase of the digital era." He is most well-known for representing early-stage Facebook and its founder Mark Zuckerberg in the case that later served as the basis for the 2010 Aaron Sorkin film The Social Network, as well as his leadership role at GitHub, the global software platform. At GitHub, Avalos ascended from the company's early-stage General Counsel to its Chief Business & Operating Officer and member of its Board of Directors, a shift that was considered controversial by some members of GitHub's community at the time. He is a public speaker on software and technology issues, and is considered an early proponent of remote work and best practices.

Avalos is currently Co-CEO at Observable, Inc., the data visualization company as well as co-founder and advisor to Shades, the Gen-Z news application.
