I build production systems that hold up under real load: AI agents shipped to production, blockchain infra securing $6B+, and low-latency services in Rust, Go, and C/C++. Recent work: Agentic AI backend for a music-industry SaaS — LLM-powered analytics and automated workflows over production data 15x LLM inference speedup — 35B-param MoE model at 12 tok/s on consumer Apple Silicon (C/Metal) CDN built from scratch: Rust edge proxies (Pingora), NATS JetStream, Redis, authoritative DNS, bare-metal IaC Cross-chain bridging infrastructure enabling $6B in capital access Open source contributuons merged into go-ethereum, Firedancer, and Yellowstone; performance work on Reth What I take on: 🔹 Backend & distributed systems — Rust, Go, Python · gRPC, WebSockets, Kafka · real-time event-driven pipelines 🔹 AI engineering — agentic workflows, LLM integration, RAG, MCP servers, inference optimization (Metal/CUDA) 🔹 Blockchain — Solana (Anchor, native) + EVM (Solidity, Foundry) · protocols, indexers, trading infra 🔹 Full-stack delivery — React/Svelte/Next.js · AWS, Terraform, Docker · Grafana/Prometheus 9+ years, senior roles across infra and DeFi. High ownership, clear communication, tested code, architecture that won't need a rewrite in six months.
