I build AI systems and the platforms they run on.
Most recently a tech lead & senior full stack engineer at Cyfrin. I built Cygent, an AI security engineer that reviews smart contracts before they ship. I also built most of Cyfrin Updraft, which 250,000+ engineers have used to learn.
I’m a senior engineer who leads teams and ships products. My current focus is AI systems that do real work inside developer workflows, not demos. I care about the boring parts that decide whether an AI tool gets used: false positive rates, latency budgets, context window management, and the eval harness that tells you whether the last change actually helped.
Before the AI work I built platform infrastructure at scale: video streaming for 250,000 learners, payments & subscriptions, and proctored certifications. That ground is what the AI work stands on.
I’m between roles and looking for my next thing. I’m most useful when the problem is getting a product from “it works in a demo” to “people trust it enough to use it every day.”
Or walk through it
An AI security engineer for protocol teams. It reads pull requests, finds exploit paths, checks that fixes still hold at release time, and filters bug bounty submissions. It runs inside GitHub, Slack and CI so nobody has to open another dashboard.
A developer education platform. I built the video pipeline, subscriptions and payments, proctored certification, assessments, the jobs board, and the assistant that helps learners when they get stuck.
A community of Solana developers with a verifiable on-chain profile. Recommended developer community by Solana and other blockchain developers.
A small tool that keeps your .env out of an AI agent’s context window.
A main contributor to the open source human readable blockchain explorer on Solana. Leverages Helius APIs and RPCs.
