Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRon Phillips is an inventive software engineer with 17 years of hands-on experience building geographically-aware web applications and administering spatial and relational databases. He specialized in Open Source GIS technologies like PostGIS and Spatialite, and has leveraged Ruby on Rails and Python to deliver practical tools that recovered over $30,000 in license tax revenue from a single 16-hour development effort. At the Summit County Engineer’s office he combined fuzzy search, geocoding, and geodatabase queries to resolve jurisdictional and address data challenges and to enable web-based editing and display of spatial data. A long-time Ruby on Rails user since 2007 and holder of 22 U.S. patents, he brings a rare mix of operational DBA skills, web mapping expertise, and inventive problem-solving. Now retired and completing paused projects, he continues to iterate on practical GIS-driven solutions from his base in Mogadore, Ohio.
