Cole Sayre
Software engineer in Kansas City, MO.
Since late 2022 I have been on the Smart Factory team at the Kansas City National Security Campus, building the software that sits between manufacturing data and the people who depend on it: desktop apps in Avalonia, Windows services, ingestion pipelines that turn inspection reports into structured records, and the automation that replaces a manual step.
Before that I spent a year at Oracle Health (Cerner) as a technical solution analyst, configuring clinical documentation templates and chasing root causes through SQL and server logs. I graduated from Wichita State University in 2021 with a B.S. in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics.
Most of what I write here comes out of that work: Oracle, C#, .NET, audit trails, bulk data, and lately how to use coding agents without letting them make decisions they shouldn't. The full history is on the resume page.
Outside of work I'm usually reading, hacking on something in the garage, or figuring out how to automate the next thing that annoys me.
What I work with
- C# and .NET: ASP.NET Core, EF Core, Avalonia UI, MVVM, Windows services
- Oracle and SQL: ODP.NET, bulk operations, schema and migration tooling
- Internal tooling and automation for manufacturing and data integration
- Delivery: GitLab CI/CD, Docker, Splunk, Linux
- Agent-assisted development with Claude Code
