What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my blockchain expertise to drive impactful projects and contribute to a forward-thinking team.

I am a vision-driven Blockchain Engineer with over 7 years of experience in building secure, scalable, and innovative smart contract systems across various industries, including Fintech, entertainment, and education. My expertise lies in Ethereum, Solana, and other Layer 1 and Layer 2 ecosystems, where I have successfully shipped production-grade protocols in Solidity and Rust. I have a proven track record of delivering high-impact smart contracts while shaping long-term product strategies and security architectures.

Throughout my career, I have led the development of decentralized protocols, optimized gas usage, and integrated advanced technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs. My role as a lead at multiple startups has allowed me to not only write contracts but also define their potential to unlock value for users and ecosystems. I am passionate about collaborating with teams to create innovative solutions that bridge compliance with decentralization, ensuring that the products I work on are both efficient and user-centric.
