Built a full-stack Web3 application with wallet authentication, NFT minting, and dashboard views using React, Solidity, and Ethereum/Solana integrations. Focused on clean UX and secure transaction handling.
Designed and operated production blockchain transaction systems supporting high-volume asset issuance, with emphasis on transaction correctness, confirmation reliability, and post-execution verification. Built and maintained event-driven pipelines (webhooks, queues) to track transaction state changes and ensure accurate lifecycle handling across asynchronous systems. Integrated Fireblocks MPC custody and transaction authorization policies, collaborating on secure transaction submission and monitoring. Implemented batching and queueing strategies to optimize throughput, latency, and cost efficiency under load. Supported system reliability through upgrades by validating state assumptions, enforcing invariant checks, and improving observability around execution outcomes. Contributed to early initiatives addressing observability gaps and emerging agentic AI risks, focusing on traceability and verifiable execution paths.
