Gabriel R.

Vetted PLC/HMI developer in the United States (UTC-5)

Hello, My name is Gabriel Rider, I have over 7 years worth of experience as a Senior Database Developer and Data Engineer. I have also worked for an engineering firm on automation projects. I have worked extensively with Ignition HMI that uses Python as its back end language. Using this platform in conjunction with several different databases, I have created many projects including. * A recipe management system that creates and stores the data for an industrial recipe system and transfers the data to the PLC when needed. * Many applications that integrate MySQL and SQL Server databases and Python to perform industrial applications. * Many one-off scripts for the Ignition HMI platform. At my day job now, I work extensively with SAP and SQL Server development. When SQL Server Procedures are not good enough to use for data wrangling needs, I can also rely on my Emacs Lisp/Macro and Python/Pandas skills to get the job done. I am open to training new students/junior developers the unique ways of working that I have developed for solving problems on these projects.
