Top SchoolHonest Bodkin is a seasoned software engineer and founder with 11 years of experience building products that streamline editorial workflows for major media brands. He co-founded and served as CTO of Yellow Brim, leading a TypeScript/React team to build Osmosys—an automation platform sold to the Los Angeles Times, Vox Media and others—that cut a 45-minute content task to five minutes and integrated with major email platforms. Previously a product engineer on the LA Times Data Desk, he blends newsroom-first UX with strong backend skills in Python/Django, Postgres, and cloud platforms (AWS/GCP). More recently he led frontend engineering at Converge Insurance and now applies his startup and campaign experience to freelance and civic ventures in San Francisco. A practical tinkerer who also designs UX and tooling, he carries the family nickname Honest (often goes by Charley) and welcomes a joke about it.
