What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a security-minded Web3 team where I can architect and harden DeFi and cross-chain protocols, ship production smart contracts end-to-end, and collaborate across full-stack engineering to deliver measurable reliability.

I’m a Security-focused Blockchain Engineer with nearly 5 years of experience architecting, developing, and securing production-grade DeFi protocols and cross-chain infrastructure across EVM-compatible chains and the Cosmos ecosystem. I design and ship mission-critical smart contracts and operational tooling, with a strong emphasis on robust security, auditing, and long-term maintainability.

In my current role at Persistence Labs (pSTAKE Finance), I’ve built and maintained core DeFi contracts (including stkBNB, BTC Babylon staking, stkETH, and ERC4626 vaults), executed token airdrops to 2,000+ wallets, and deployed LayerZero OApp/OFT contracts across multiple mainnets. I also lead full-stack implementations for BTCFi cross-chain intents using ERC7683, engineered deterministic deployments via createX, and contribute to CosmWasm testing and Go-based operational bots.
