Summary
Edward Sproull is a retired Microsoft engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience designing and building software from operating systems to utility apps, having worked on .NET since before its public release and joined Microsoft in 2000. He holds a BS/MS in Computer Engineering from Case Western Reserve University and spent 17+ years at Microsoft after an early stint at Rockwell Automation. Since retiring in 2017 he’s been exploring modern web stacks—TypeScript, Angular, ASP.NET Core and SQL—to prototype web apps and bring ideas to life on his own terms. Known for a pragmatic, problem-first approach (“What’s your problem?”), he enjoys learning new frameworks and applying deep platform knowledge to practical solutions. Based in Surprise, Arizona, he’s open to short-term collaborations or interesting technical challenges rather than traditional employment. An unassuming early .NET insider, he blends historical perspective on platform evolution with current full-stack craft.
