Summary
Robert Miner is an Application Development Specialist with 15 years of hands-on experience building and maintaining web applications, primarily on Ruby on Rails with MySQL backends. He brings a strong full-stack grounding from early PHP and custom CMS work to modern Rails services, often balancing backend-heavy tasks with jQuery-driven front-end scripting and legacy system maintenance. Comfortable working remotely and on-site, he has a track record of supporting production middleware, automating workflows with Unix scripting, and coordinating across distributed teams and shifts. His background includes designing e-commerce integrations and database schemas, plus a willingness to own both maintenance of legacy code and delivery of new features. A lifelong programmer shaped by formal CS training at Northern Illinois University, he pairs pragmatic engineering with an eye for gradual modernization.
