I'm looking for software engineering and quantitative research roles, remote or with relocation. I graduated from IIT Roorkee (B.Arch, 2019–2024) and have been doing mft quantitative research and smart contract engineering in DeFi since 2020.
Career
Lucidly Labs, cofounder and director (2023 – Jul 2026): I headed engineering and client relations for onchain earn vaults. We raised a $600K seed from Skycatcher.xyz and were finalists at Base Batches 002 (by coinbase). I designed and ran strategies in production. In early 2026 I managed stablecoin books for two institutional clients, Archimed and Clearstar.
Aspen (tryaspen.ai), cofounder and CEO (Jul – Sep 2026). An agentic harness for discovering and running DeFi strategies. Shortlisted for YC F26.
(infiniFi.xyz) risk council member (Nov 2025 – present).
Earlier: independent trading 2021–2023 (mid-frequency quantitative research and options strategies in DeFi)
Research work:
Funding rate research: backtested carry infra, cross venue and staking hedged trades across Binance Bybit and Hyperliquid, with fees, liquidations and capacity modelled.
Prediction market market making: built a quoting and pricing engine for Pred, a sports prediction exchange, covering pricing models for every market type, a Polymarket hedge and order signing on their API. (https://docsend.com/view/ctdyz49jynijj8z4)
Options volatility research on Deribit and onchain options venues.
Open source tools since Aug 2026, including NEAR Intents private swaps and an encrypted launchpad on Solana (Arcium).
Interests
Market making, funding and volatility, and the engineering that makes these run reliably: data pipelines, backtesters, execution and risk systems. Python, TypeScript, Solidity and Solana.
