Infrastructure, Web3 platforms and developer tooling for the Canton & Cosmos ecosystems.

• - Maintain validator infrastructure across 30+ chains with zero slashing on owned scope.

• - Consolidated 3 Ansible repos into a single modular monorepo with linting and a testing methodology, streamlining bare-metal provisioning and reducing operational load for admins.

• - Built custom Prometheus exporters for under-tooled networks and integrated GoAlert with calendar-based on-call, cutting alert noise and speeding incident response.

• - Re-architected the node-services framework (noders.services) from Cosmos-SDK-coupled to pluggable modules, enabling fast onboarding of any chain beyond Cosmos (e.g. Sui, Story, Monad) for snapshot and API data.

• - Built a quest platform (Google, X, Telegram verification) and a Canton hackathon platform (hackathon.appsfactory.cc) with AI mentor agents (Agent SDK, quota & guardrail management), submissions, judging and on-chain smart-contract interaction — ~100 teams and ~30 projects in season 1 (React + Vite + MUI).

• - Developed a Node-as-a-Service dashboard (5 enterprise clients) to manage Canton node permissions, users and smart-contract deployment.

Skills: Fullstack, DevOps/SRE, Ansible, Prometheus/Grafana, AI Agents (Agent SDK), Canton smart contracts, React/Vite/MUI

Staking-as-a-Service for Cosmos and other blockchains.

• - Ran validators across 20+ networks with zero slashing, securing up to ~$1M staked from hundreds of delegators at peak.

• - Built a Lava Network restaking dashboard (lavacenter.xyz) that processed ~912 reward-claim transactions from 230 wallets — roughly half of all restaking claims on Lava (vs ~150 for the next-largest provider).

• - Deployed a self-hosted KYVE restaking app and a Lava multisig wallet (React).

Skills: Backend, Frontend, Nodes (DevOps/SRE), Relationship management

Historical data storage, validation, and accessibility for scaling blockchains and their ecosystems

• - Created a TypeScript SDK for interacting with the Kyve network.

• - Maintained and improved the Kyve app frontend (Vue/Nuxt).

• - Implemented Ledger integration for Kyve app and chain side.

Skills: Frontend, @kyve/sdk, Ledger integration (FE & chain)

Social network

• - Migrated/synchronized legacy Firebase data to PostgreSQL.

• - Led the development of the new backend services
