Software Engineer

Full-stack software engineer with tons of hands on experience building high performance infrastructure that has powered billion-dollar protocols. I work across the entire stackfrom smart contracts and on-chain tooling to performant frontends with deep expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, Go, Solidity, and EVM-based systems.

I've shipped production systems just about in every space, and I thrive in fast moving environments where the stakes are high. At 18, I've already contributed to projects most engineers don't see until mid career.

Looking to join an ambitious team building something that matters ideally at the protocol, infrastructure, or DeFi layer.
