What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build production Solana projects in a high-output team—shipping secure Anchor programs, trustless payment/governance flows, and event-driven backends with strong validation, scalability, and clean full-stack Web3 experiences.

I build Solana programs and full-stack dApps with a security-first mindset, focusing on Anchor program architecture, on-chain state design, and reliable transaction flows.

In projects like HorizonPay, I implemented trustless stablecoin payment infrastructure: a Rust/Anchor escrow with a 7-slot circular buffer, atomic shared escrow helpers, and idempotent checkout sessions guarded by DB constraints and server-side tx validation.

I also design event-driven systems—WebSocket contract listeners, reconciliation cron logic, and HMAC-signed webhook delivery—to keep merchant integrations consistent without exposing critical parameters to tampering.

As a Solana Turbine3 Accelerated Builder (Q2 2026) and a Colosseum Hackathon builder, I ship production-oriented Solana work, including CipherVault threshold multi-signature governance/treasury controls and additional Anchor programs for launchpad, staking, and AMM mechanics.
