Smart Contract Engineer and founder specializing in DeFi protocols, ZK cryptography, and keyless wallets.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Smart Contract Engineer and founder with 5+ years of blockchain experience, specializing in DeFi protocols, telecom decentralization, cross-chain integrations, and keyless smart contract wallets. I focus on production-ready systems—cryptography (ZKP), protocol architecture, and Rust-based execution.
I founded GMMS Labs to build Kokio, a mobile app enabling eSIM/data bundle purchases with fiat & crypto in 200+ countries. I developed audited smart contracts, built ERC-4337 biometric wallets with keyless signing, and shipped a TypeScript SDK, while also leading company direction and developer management.
I also worked on Blockswap Network’s LSD protocol, designing validator requirement reductions down to 0.001 ETH and enabling 1300+ ETH staked by users. Recognized and funded by the Ethereum Foundation (including a USD 240k+ collective grant), I’ve collaborated with EF’s PSE on privacy & scaling and designed a zk-CX prototype to reduce GSMA dependency.
