Engineering
Leader,
Still
Shipping.
Hi, I'm Craig. I lead engineering teams and build the platforms under AI products: model serving, agent pipelines, and the infrastructure that data scientists actually use.
Selected work
07 THINGS I'VE BUILTCommercial Premiere Pro extension that automates multicamera podcast editing. Whisper transcription, speaker diarization, and filler detection, all on-device through ONNX Runtime.
A local desktop vectorizer for macOS. Drop in a PNG, JPEG or BMP; get back SVG, EPS, DXF, PDF or PNG from an offline tracing engine. No account, no credits, offline by default.
Open-source pipeline engine that makes multi-agent AI workflows repeatable. Typed contracts at every node boundary, resumable runs, and review phases where no single model's output is trusted unchecked.
An email client for AI agents. Gives a program its own read-only mailbox: filtered mail delivered to disk as .eml and markdown, served over MCP. Never writes to your mailbox.
Realtime NHL & MLB goal events. Thousands of Home Assistant setups flash their lights off my feed.
A committed, markdown-native dev log, project wiki, and cross-project hub for spec-driven agentic development. Agents build from tasks, epics, and decisions checked into git — and leave a durable record instead of vanished context.
Python client for the Honeywell Total Connect alarm API. It became the library behind Home Assistant's Total Connect integration, now maintained by the community it attracted.
About
I'm a Director of Engineering at Lyntris (formerly Hypergiant / Accelint), where I've led an engineering organization of ~50 people across multiple product lines. Before that I was the lead engineer on Hyperdrive, a Kubernetes-native MLOps platform that spun off into an enterprise product.
I'm a leader who still ships. Lately that means AI infrastructure: agent pipeline tooling, model packaging and serving, and on-device ML inference in a commercial desktop product.
As a leader, I believe high-performing teams are built on trust and transparency. Creating space for risk-taking and learning from failure is how you get a culture of innovation and growth.

Oscars
Outsider
I co-host and produce a podcast exploring the art of cinema and the stories that define the Academy Awards. Weekly awards-season analysis, plus an Oscars fantasy league we take entirely too seriously.

Bravo Outsider
The video podcast I hosted before Oscars Outsider, pointed at Bravo's reality slate instead of the Academy's. The back catalogue is still online — including the episodes I rebuilt as VR scenes.
