Biography

I'm Robert Bednark, known as "Rob" or "Robbie". I was born in Minnesota in 1969. I grew up in rural Minnesota in dairy farming country. My parents owned and operated a manufacturing company out in the country that they built in 1950 and ran until they sold it in 1979. The company employed 10 people and manufactured wooden bed frames, the internal support used in box springs, the part of the bed under the mattress.

I have 6 siblings -- 3 sisters and 3 brothers. I am the youngest by 10 years. My father died in 1980, and my mother now lives in Fountain Hills, AZ.

I graduated from Healy High School in Pierz, Minnesota in 1987. I attended St. Cloud State University in St. Cloud, Minnesota from 1987-1992, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science (BSCS) and a minor in Human Relations.

I worked for Com Squared Systems in Minneapolis from 1992-1996 as a Software Engineer, writing client-server database software in DOS, MS-Windows, and UNIX, using Pascal, Visual Basic, and C. Sara and I moved to Oregon in November, 1996, and I started working as a contractor for Informix in December, 1996.  I became a permanent Informix employee on 1/1/98. Informix was purchased by IBM in July, 2001, so I now work for IBM. At Informix I worked on a build team doing build and release engineering of database servers, working on Unix and MS-Windows using Perl, Clearcase, Bourne shell (sh), and C; I also did a competitive analysis, and worked on a web-search product similar to Google. Since Dec 2001 I've been working on the test team for SAN File System.
