Matt Ring is an Agile & Technical Coach at Principal Financial Group, a recovering (full-stack) app developer and former technical product owner over .NET development tooling used across the company. Matt’s agile journey began in 2006 in stealth, when the idea of sticky notes over Gantt charts was heresy, and has gradually evolved from Kool-Aid Drinker to Agile Pragmatist. Matt now works with development and operational teams across Principal to help them improve upon their own agile, lean and DevOps practices.
