Solana Hft & Low Latency Systems Engineer
Independent Rust engineer building low-latency, high-performance Solana trading systems. I designed, built, and operate ShredStrike — a production algorithmic trading system running on bare-metal servers across six global regions — end to end, solo.
Core strengths: Rust, shred-level data ingestion (ShredStream, gRPC/Geyser, RPC WebSocket), a custom shred relayer, self-hosted RPC nodes, RT-Linux kernel tuning, kernel-bypass networking (AF_XDP/DPDK), and microsecond-level latency optimization.
Open to freelance and contract work on latency-critical systems — Solana bots, trading infrastructure, RPC and streaming data pipelines, and high-performance Rust services.
