Tim Liu

I am a product-minded Senior Developer with over 18 years of experience building scalable web and mobile applications. My career is defined by versatility: I have successfully navigated the strict compliance landscapes of IBM as a Team Lead and thrived in the high-velocity world of Web3 startups as a Founding Engineer.

Most recently, I served as a core developer for a leading DeFi protocol on Starknet. Working in a lean 2-person squad, I co-architected the full-stack ecosystem—unifying Money Markets and DEXs into a seamless "Super App"—which scaled to $300M ATH TVL and $20M daily volume. My work involved everything from complex frontend state management to engineering custom off-chain indexers that protected the protocol from bad debt.

My core technical strengths include:

• Fullstack Mastery: Deep expertise in TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Node.js.

• Mobile & Cross-Platform: End-to-end mobile delivery using Expo/React Native (shipped Solana trading bots to App Stores).

• Complex Data: Building custom indexers and data pipelines (The Graph, Envio, PostgreSQL) to make sense of on-chain chaos.

Beyond the code, I am a strong advocate for async communication and documentation-driven development. I function best as a "Manager of One"—taking full ownership of features from architecture to production without needing micro-management. While my recent focus has been on DeFi/Web3, I am open to any challenging remote role that demands high performance, security, and complex problem-solving.
