what I do


I'm a software engineer with 8+ years building production systems end to end: user-facing apps, developer tooling, content infrastructure, and the CI/CD and edge infra beneath them.

For eight years (2018-2025) I grew through five roles at Komodo, an open-source blockchain platform (core technology acquired by Gleec, 2025): documentation, support, QA/DevOps, frontend, and platform engineering. The product was a non-custodial multi-chain wallet and a cross-chain atomic-swap DEX: people held their own keys and traded directly across blockchains, with no exchange in the middle. I was the technical point of contact for the 20+ centralized exchanges integrating Komodo and its Smart Chains, bridging product, QA, docs, and support across releases. Now I build AI products.

πŸ§ͺ KDF WASM Playground Β· source

Komodo's atomic-swap engine, running in a browser tab. A 30+ MB WebAssembly build behind a service-worker compress/fetch/decompress pipeline: 1.1 s cold, 231 ms on return. Integrators, QA, and docs readers fire real RPC calls against it with no local build.

πŸš€ What I'm working on

  • 🧠 Founder & AI Engineer @ Proof of Tech, an AI-engineering consultancy. Built the platform solo on Astro + Cloudflare Workers: "Ask the Field Notes", a live hybrid-RAG search (BM25 + Vectorize + Reciprocal Rank Fusion, streamed cited answers), a multi-agent citation-gated content pipeline, and a Lighthouse-CI (CWV) performance budget enforced in CI.
  • ⚑ Building AI products at an early-stage venture as lead frontend engineer & top backend contributor: a real-time, multimodal generative-AI web app (streaming chat + image / video / voice over self-hosted open-source models), with SSE streaming UIs, a Radix design system, and hardened FastAPI backends (BFF cookie auth, CSRF/SSRF hardening, S3-backed media pipelines).
  • πŸ€– Leaning on multi-agent AI workflows (Claude Code: skills, hooks, subagents) to move fast without dropping the quality bar.

✨ Selected highlights

  • 🌐 Shipped Komodo's public web estate across 5+ launches and rebrands: 10+ properties, 120k+ monthly visits, 1M+ monthly Google Search impressions.
  • πŸ›‘οΈ Led the user-facing response to the 2019 Agama supply-chain attack and coordinated fund recovery for thousands of users after a ~$13M white-hat sweep.
  • πŸ“ˆ Built a DeFi markets dashboard charting 1000+ trading pairs; also a docs platform with MDX source and a Next.js build-and-deploy system that lints all the docs, adds attribution based on git commit history, and more.
  • πŸ”— Ran a multi-region dPoW notary-node stack helping protect 15+ Smart Chains against 51% attacks.

🧩 More from Komodo (2018-2025)

Across those five roles I also:

  • πŸ›‚ wrote a geographic-compliance Cloudflare Worker (TypeScript/Hono) screening 2M+ requests/month against a 34-jurisdiction policy, with fail-closed defaults;
  • πŸ’¬ built the in-app feedback Worker (parallel Trello/Matrix/Backblaze fan-out) that cut response times by more than 50%;
  • πŸ”„ was users' go-to when a cross-chain atomic swap stalled: diagnosed the failure, recovered stuck funds, and wrote the guides that prevented the next one;
  • πŸ—³οΈ won 5+ community elections to keep operating that dPoW stack, a consensus-critical seat, and built the on-chain governance and vote-tally dashboards the elections used;
  • πŸ§‘β€πŸ« taught junior engineers blockchain fundamentals throughout the KDF WASM Playground build;
  • 🧰 sole-authored the KDF WASM RPC bridge (Node.js/Puppeteer) so browser-only builds run under existing JSON-RPC tooling like a native daemon, and wrote 7 technical articles on the official blog.
