Senior Web3 Frontend Engineer

Hey, I'm Heron — a senior Web3 fullstack engineer. 6 years building for the web, 4+ in Web3, and a 6× hackathon winner (ETH Samba, ETHGlobal, Monad Blitz, King of Devs, Pod Labs). 

At Blockful I led the frontend of AI Delegate, an ETH Samba 2024 winner that became a production governance product; built Swaplace, the first dApp on Kakarot zkEVM; and owned major parts of Anticapture, a governance analytics platform for DAOs like ENS, Uniswap and Arbitrum. 

Today I run Nanolances, a studio shipping dApps and SaaS for Web3 and Web2 clients, and I'm building Noma, a social travel mini-app on Celo with MiniPay and World ID. 

Stack: TypeScript, React, Next.js, Wagmi, Viem, Ethers.js, GraphQL. Comfortable across the stack too (Node, Python, PostgreSQL). 

Speaker at The Mu (Argentina) and Web3Experts Brazil (ZK with Noir). Based in Brazil (UTC-3), open to full-time and contract roles.
