Top SchoolShane Mingins is a Senior Developer based in Lower Hutt, New Zealand, with 16 years of professional software experience and a programming journey that began on a TRS-80 in 1982. He builds and maintains large Ruby on Rails applications, has recently delivered AWS serverless solutions, and brings deep familiarity with developer testing, TDD, and Agile/XP practices.
