About Me

Principal-level engineer with 12+ years of experience building secure, high-performance backend, trading, blockchain, AI, and graphics systems. I specialize in low-latency trading, custom protocols, distributed systems, and AI infrastructure. I deliver complex systems end-to-end.

Specializations

Trading Systems

Low-latency matching engines, order management, real-time market data

Network Protocols

Custom protocols, TCP/UDP/QUIC, WebSockets, gRPC

AI Infrastructure

LLM inference servers, agent runtimes, RAG pipelines, embeddings

Blockchain

Bitcoin/Lightning, Ethereum, smart contracts, DeFi protocols

P2P & Distributed

DHT, libp2p, threshold cryptography, decentralized identity

Graphics & Rendering

WebGL, WebGPU, Vulkan, real-time rendering, GPU compute

Primary stack: Rust, Go, TypeScript, Python. Download CV

Current

SynonymSenior Rust Engineer

Censorship-resistant infrastructure in Rust and WebAssembly. Cryptographic identity systems with threshold signing, DHT-based record publishing, low-level networking.

IndependentAI Infrastructure

Rust-based LLM inference server with batching, streaming, and KV cache. Agent runtime with tool calling, planning, and sandboxed execution. Data pipelines for embeddings and evals.
