What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can apply smart contract security expertise and on-chain threat intelligence to support investigations. I want to build resilient decentralized systems while using data platforms to turn evidence into actionable insights.

I’m a Cryptocurrency Intelligence Analyst with a strong focus on on-chain infrastructure analysis and threat actor research. At Elliptic, I map how funds move across exchange operations and how deposit and hot wallet structures support withdrawals and liquidity management across UTXO and EVM-based chains.

I also investigate attacker operations by reverse engineering JavaScript-based drainer code. I analyze fund movement patterns and how assets are laundered from on-chain to off-ramp, bringing clear technical intel to support investigations and team decisions.

On the security side, I conduct smart contract and exploit post-mortem analysis, connecting attack vectors to specific vulnerabilities. I’ve also performed in-depth smart contract security audits, using formal verification methods and manual code review to detect potential exploits, then delivering detailed risk reports with mitigations.

I’m passionate about smart contract security and building resilient decentralized systems. I use Databricks and Dune to query on-chain and off-chain data, and I build internal automation workflows with Claude to reduce manual effort—like extracting screenshot links from Excel and automating storage into Google Drive.
