Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCraig Mcilwrath is a software engineer with nine years of experience focused on full‑stack development and language tooling, based in Greater Boston. At Wasp he improved compiler diagnostics, built a language server, and implemented a parser, type checker, and interpreter in Haskell, while also leading a rewrite of user-facing documentation. He contributes to the popular wasp-lang open-source project, adding robust external import handling, diagnostics, and TypeScript scaffolding to streamline developer workflows. Craig brings a strong foundation in computational science from the University of Rochester and a knack for turning complex language specifications into practical, well-tested implementations. An engineer who blends systems-level language design with hands-on front-end/back-end work, he’s comfortable navigating both refactors and new feature design.
