Senior Blockchain Infrastructure Engineer. 8 years building across smart contract protocol engineering, blockchain infrastructure, and distributed backend systems. I build across all three layers of the stack.
I build systems that stay correct through retries, inconsistent providers, and partial failure.
Building AfroPanda Esports, leading engineering @ PandaPay Africa.
-
Owned the intents-based cross-swap backend at TAO.com — solver integration, fee calculation, pricing, and settlement flows across EVM networks and Bittensor.
-
Designed a separate Bittensor Order Service and Matcher at TAO.com — signed order registration, idempotent requests, and execution isolated from the public API.
-
Designed the backend infrastructure at Bloom — token management, portfolio aggregation, real-time notifications, and cross-chain transaction parsing where external indexers fall short.
-
Architected Baki Exchange at Canza Finance — Solidity collateral vaults, Pyth oracle integrations, liquidations, and swap execution.
-
Built Bittensor liquidity vaults and production keeper infrastructure through General Tensor — ERC-4626 vaults, EIP-712 lock controls, and scan → verify → execute → confirm pipelines with PostgreSQL audit trails.
Benchmarking contiguous Vec-based vs pointer-based Merkle tree layouts in Rust. Hypotheses locked before implementation. Results published regardless of outcome.
Keepers are off-chain bots that monitor on-chain state and trigger contract executions — liquidations, settlements, order fills. Most protocol teams build one from scratch and couple it tightly to their contract.
Define a strategy trait, plug in your contract logic, and the engine handles the rest — scan, verify, execute, confirm, retry on failure, dead-letter on persistent failure, emit metrics throughout. Coming soon.
