Message

At Kredete, I developed Rust Web3 infrastructure microservices from scratch for the Gravv platform, covering service design, implementation, and blockchain integrations. I also integrated Alchemy, QuickNode, and Dfns into backend workflows.

At Unique Network, I built and maintained Rust backend services for NFT indexing and real-time data across Substrate and Solana. I improved indexing speed by 45% and reduced system memory usage.

At Olympus Dao, I developed Solana smart contracts and Rust backend systems using Anchor and Borsh, and contributed to architecture for bonding and staking systems. I also delivered APIs for protocol data and user dashboards.

Earlier, I developed smart contracts and backend services at Supreme Finance and Compound Labs, then built full-stack SaaS applications at X-Team. My work has included Solidity, Go, TypeScript, and API development, as well as performance tuning and on-chain indexing.
