Cory Massaro is a software engineer with 11 years of experience, currently building at the Wikimedia Foundation from his base in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. He combines formal training in computational linguistics and comparative literature (Brandeis and UC Santa Barbara) with a BA in creative writing and classical languages from Duke, bringing a rare blend of literary sensitivity and technical rigor to language-focused engineering problems. His interests in poetry, linguistics, and memory inform work that often sits at the intersection of natural language and software systems. Known for thoughtful, language-centric solutions, he contributes a humanistic perspective to engineering teams that shapes how information is modeled, searched, and presented.
