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.

05 THINGS I'VE BUILT

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.
