About Me

I’m a software engineer with 8+ years of experience, with the last 5 years specializing in Rust systems programming, backend and blockchain infrastructure.

I live and breathe Rust — building high-performance distributed systems that leverage zero-cost abstractions without sacrificing low-level control.

What I’ve Built

  • High-performance backends: Solid and secure backend infrastructure serving tens of thousands concurrent users
  • Linux Kernel Enhancements: Rust-based per-peer workqueue system achieving 13.4% performance gains for millions of users
  • eBPF XDP Firewall: Pure Rust firewall with NIC-level packet filtering
  • Solana DeFi Protocols: DEX and governance systems using Anchor framework
  • Substrate Runtime: Cross-chain runtime supporting 4 EVM chains

Technical Expertise

Core Skills:

  • Rust/C interop and FFI
  • Kernel-space optimization
  • Async runtime tuning (Tokio)
  • no_std programming
  • Memory management & zero-copy patterns
  • Idiomatic Rust patterns

Backend:

  • Axum, Actix-web, Rocket
  • PostgreSQL, Redis
  • Docker, Kubernetes
  • CI/CD pipelines

Blockchain:

  • Solana (Anchor framework)
  • Substrate/Polkadot
  • Smart contract security
  • DeFi protocol design
