/ About

Shawn Rye

Senior Software Engineer · 13+ years

I'm a senior software engineer who designs, builds and modernizes enterprise .NET applications. My specialty is taking legacy systems — Web Forms, VB.NET and .NET Framework — and bringing them into modern .NET Core, Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly, backed by SQL Server, Azure and clean API design.

I've led development for large corporations, government and healthcare organizations, and I fold modern AI-assisted engineering (GitHub Copilot with Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini) into everyday work — shipping faster while keeping quality, testing and judgment firmly in human hands.

/ AI-assisted engineering

Building with modern AI, every day.

I integrate leading AI models into my development workflow — through GitHub Copilot and directly — to ship faster and cleaner. AI accelerates the work; the engineering judgment, review and testing stay firmly with me.

GitHub Copilot
Opus & Sonnet

Claude

Anthropic

My primary AI pair-programmer through GitHub Copilot. I lean on Claude Opus for deep reasoning through complex .NET architecture, and Sonnet for fast, high-quality code generation and large-scale refactors.

  • Claude Opus for deep reasoning
  • Code generation & refactoring
  • Architecture & code review
GPT-4 / GPT-5

ChatGPT

OpenAI

Fast prototyping, debugging and documentation. I use ChatGPT to turn requirements into working code and clear technical docs, then validate and harden the output.

  • Prototyping & debugging
  • Technical documentation
  • Requirement breakdown
Gemini Pro

Gemini

Google

Research, multimodal analysis, and a strong second opinion on tricky implementations across the full stack — a great cross-check on approach and edge cases.

  • Research & analysis
  • Code assistance
  • Cross-checking solutions
/ Full-stack foundations

I know the old framework, too.

Modern .NET is where I focus today — but I've spent years shipping and maintaining production applications on the classic .NET Framework, full-stack. If your system runs on Web Forms or MVC with JavaScript on the front end, I can jump straight in.

.NET Framework 4.x

ASP.NET Web Forms

Years of building and maintaining production Web Forms apps on .NET Framework 4.x — postbacks, view state, master pages, and user/server controls.

ASP.NET MVC

Full MVC 5 applications with Razor views, controllers, model binding, routing and areas — the classic server-rendered .NET pattern.

Full-Stack JavaScript

jQuery, vanilla JavaScript, AJAX and hands-on DOM work powering interactive front-ends — backed by HTML5 & CSS3 (MCTS 70-480 certified).

VB.NET & C#

Fluent in both languages across legacy Web Forms, Windows desktop apps and older class libraries — I can read and refactor code others avoid.

Classic ASP & Services

Maintained and migrated classic ASP sites and older SOAP / ASMX & WCF web services into modern replacements without losing functionality.

Legacy UI & Reporting

Bootstrap, jQuery UI, Telerik and SSRS inside older frameworks — comfortable in the tooling real enterprise systems were built on.
