I’m a junior blockchain infrastructure engineer focused on Ethereum nodes, Linux systems, monitoring, and reliability, with a supporting foundation in Solidity, Foundry, and secure system design.

My recent work has centered on building, operating, and troubleshooting Ethereum infrastructure in a practical, operator-first way. I’ve run a live Nethermind and Lighthouse node stack on Ubuntu, built monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana, and written Bash tooling for service validation, log inspection, restart/recovery workflows, and metrics checks.

Alongside infrastructure work, I’ve also built Solidity projects and validated protocol behaviour with Foundry using unit tests, fuzz tests, and invariants. That has given me a strong security-oriented mindset around correctness, failure modes, and designing systems that behave safely under adversarial conditions.

I’m seeking a role where I can contribute to real infrastructure, reliability, or platform work, learn through strong engineering standards and mentorship, and continue growing across Linux, observability, automation, and distributed systems. Remote and async-friendly teams with a high bar for technical quality are a strong fit.
