Blockchain engineer specializing in Solana, on-chain analytics, and MEV execution.
SingaporeWhat I'm looking for
I am a blockchain engineer focused on building high-performance Solana systems, on-chain analytics pipelines, and decentralized trading infrastructure that move markets. I have engineered automated token launch bots with Jito bundling and priority fee optimizations, implemented Rust (Anchor) smart contracts for escrow and token distribution, and built backend services handling 20K+ concurrent users.
I combine deep backend expertise and a product mindset to deliver millisecond- and microsecond-level optimizations across DeFi ecosystems. My experience spans real-time analytics, high-frequency trading systems, REST and WebSocket APIs, frontend dApp integrations, and infrastructure automation on AWS and CI/CD — consistently improving launch success rates and reducing time-to-launch for token genesis events.
