Summary
Robert Robinson is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade building high-availability, production-grade systems across Ruby, Go, Node, and cloud-native architectures. He has led platform modernizations—migrating monoliths to microservices, upgrading Rails and Ruby versions, and cutting infrastructure costs at scale—while shipping product-focused features like DORA metrics and Velocity. Comfortable across full stack concerns, he pairs backend performance tuning and ETL work with polished front-end frameworks and CI/CD automation to reliably accelerate delivery. Beyond software, Robert brings operational leadership from running an EMS/rescue organization that handled thousands of emergency calls, a background that informs his calm, process-driven approach to incident response and team coordination. Based in New York, he combines a practical Rubyist/Gopher toolset with active interest in developer experience and continuous improvement.
