Blockchain Engineer | Web3 Integration Product Leader | Stablecoin & DeFi Strategist | DevRel Advocate I’m a results-oriented blockchain architect with over 7 years of experience in software and blockchain development. My career spans designing and deploying secure, scalable decentralized systems across EVM-compatible and non-evm-compatible ecosystems, as well as multi-chain platforms like Binance Smart Chain, Stellar, Etherlink, Avalanche, Polygon, and Arbitrum, Base etc. I excel in creating and managing smart contracts—from implementing ERC‑20, ERC‑721, ERC‑1155, ERC‑2535, to advanced constructs like ERC‑4337—to developing upgradeable contracts, robust DAO/governance frameworks, and cutting‑edge DeFi solutions such as lending/borrowing systems on Aave, auto‑staking mechanisms, and crowdfunding platforms. My technical toolbox includes Solidity, Go, ethers.js, Node.js, Rust, Hardhat, and Foundry, alongside industry-standard tools like OpenZeppelin, Alchemy, and Moralis etc. Throughout my roles—from leading Blockchain Engineering at Kredete and Cloudax to architecting solutions at GradientFi, Agulite, and INITS Limited—I have spearheaded projects that integrate blockchain into traditional financial systems, drive digital asset innovation, and enhance compliance with KYC/AML protocols. I’ve also stepped into technical product management to pivot product strategies rapidly, ensuring successful market launches and sustainable growth. Passionate about advancing the decentralized future, I empower developer communities and bridge traditional finance with Web3 innovation. Let’s connect to explore opportunities, collaborate on transformative projects, and shape the next wave of blockchain technology.
