Ken Rimple is a Senior Developer Relations Advocate with 15+ years in software and over 30 years in the industry, currently focused on front-end observability at Honeycomb. A lifelong teacher and mentor, he built and led Chariot Solutions’ training practice, authored a Manning book, produced a long-running podcast and created 50+ screencasts—skills that make complex systems approachable. Technically versatile, he’s delivered full-stack projects across React, Angular, Java/Spring, Python/Django and AWS, and has hands-on experience with CI/CD, CloudFormation, Cognito and IoT workflows. He blends consulting, pre-sales and architecture work with practical training, often stepping into roles that bridge product, ops and developer education. Known as a door-opener who mentors junior engineers into client hires, he’s equally comfortable debugging database designs as crafting developer-facing observability stories. Based in Newtown Township, PA, he brings a rare combination of deep legacy-system experience and modern front-end/cloud craftsmanship.
