Experience Highlights

Senior Backend Engineer
Nov 2025 - Ongoing9 months
Project Overview

Institutional digital-asset infrastructure spanning staking, blockchain data processing, and distributed custody systems.

Responsibilities:
  • Architected and delivered a production Staking Router, providing a unified abstraction across multiple staking providers and coordinating provider-specific workflows behind a consistent API;
  • Designed and built the Consensus Layer Indexer, a Go service for ingesting and processing Ethereum consensus-layer data for downstream staking infrastructure;
  • Led backend development of an institutional digital-asset custody platform, designing components of a distributed signing architecture and collaborating across teams on correctness, failure handling, key-management boundaries, and service interfaces;
  • Drove distributed-systems engineering across these initiatives, including asynchronous workflows, state management, idempotency, failure recovery, persistence boundaries, and production operability;
  • Provided technical leadership through architecture proposals, design reviews, implementation, and cross-team coordination while remaining hands-on with Go and Rust.

Senior Backend Engineer
Sep 2023 - Nov 20252 years 2 months
Project Overview

Institutional Ethereum staking infrastructure supporting the Liquid Collective liquid staking protocol, spanning Kubernetes-based infrastructure orchestration, staking lifecycle management, and protocol integrations.

Responsibilities:
  • Designed and built a Go-based Kubernetes operator and control-plane workflow for dynamically provisioning and managing blockchain infrastructure, using custom resources and reconciliation to translate inventory-driven requirements into production workloads;
  • Designed and developed backend services managing the staking lifecycle, coordinating validator operations and integrating blockchain state with internal platform workflows;
  • Contributed to infrastructure and backend systems supporting the Liquid Collective protocol, including Ethereum staking and liquid-staking integrations;
  • Designed and operated production distributed systems in Go using Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS, and Ethereum infrastructure;
  • Owned technical delivery from architecture and system design through implementation, deployment, and production operations.

Middle Blockchain Engineer
Dec 2022 - Aug 20237 months
Project Overview

Institutional digital-asset wallet and custody platform supporting secure asset management and integrations across multiple Layer 1 blockchain protocols, with a focus on scalable APIs, blockchain performance, and resilience.

Responsibilities:
  • Architected and launched a wallet integration API, enabling institutional clients and external applications to integrate with the platform’s wallet infrastructure;
  • Improved performance and transaction throughput of the Tendermint-based blockchain by identifying bottlenecks and optimizing critical processing paths;
  • Designed and implemented disaster-recovery tooling for scenarios involving locked or inaccessible digital assets, with a focus on operational safety and recoverability;
  • Evaluated integration requirements and technical characteristics of multiple Layer 1 protocols, including Ethereum, Solana, and Algorand, to expand the platform’s blockchain capabilities;
  • Contributed to production blockchain and custody infrastructure within the dMPC wallet team, focusing on correctness, reliability, and secure asset handling.
