My experience includes working primarily with PerlMySQL and Javascript as well as PHP, Ruby on Rails, Python and PostgreSQL database platforms. I work in a flexible and diverse development environment where I am challenged and forced to invent out-of-the-box solutions to a number of possible issues, where my vast debugging and troubleshooting skills are well exercised. I have worked with numerous different customers each with their own issues, ways of doing things, and expectations, it has been my job to meet all these, within the guidelines and permissions I've had available to me. I'm self taught, and I've programmed PHP since , Perl since , and I've dabbled with Ruby off and on since . MySQL, I began really learning about in late , and PostgreSQL I've recently began looking at in . My weapon of choice is a stable Linux distribution with a vivim armed command line, though I can use just about any relatively stable system, and support it. My extensive street knowledge, for lack of a better term, has enabled me to advance quickly and my knowledge of a wide array of different systems, protocols, and hardwaresoftware have proved useful in the dynamic environment I work, and my ability to think outside of 'logical' troubleshooting steps, allows me to acquire what knowledge I may need to accomplish complete and permanent solutions to the problems by customers provide me. Lately, I've been doing extensive work with the internals of cPanel. Adding functionality and customization. My experience has developed along with cPanel from version . on.
