Club career
Central Coast Mariners
In October 2019, Miller signed a scholarship contract with Central Coast Mariners, following a strong pre-season.[2] 3 months later, in January 2020, he signed a two-year contract, upgrading him to a professional senior contract.[3]
Hibernian
In June 2022 Miller signed a three-year contract for Scottish side Hibernian, effective from 1 July.[4] He had been due to join Australian side Macarthur FC, having signed a pre-contract deal with them before the end of his contract at Central Coast Mariners, but then signed for Hibernian instead, netting Macarthur FC an undisclosed transfer fee.[5]
International career
Miller was first called up to the Australian under-23 side in October 2021, for 2022 AFC U-23 Asian Cup qualification matches against Indonesia in Tajikistan.[6] He made his debut for the side against Indonesia on 26 October 2021, winning a penalty in a 3–2 win.[7]
Miller was subsequently called up to the team for the final 2022 AFC U-23 Asian Cup in June 2022.[8]
