The work that earns the next one
A decade of the hard parts of crypto and fintech, delivered at the highest level: consensus for a top-5 chain, a $100M-TVL DeFi protocol, exchange and institutional-data infrastructure, and systems built to scale.
Dash
Lead backend & principal protocol engineering
Led backend development at Dash Core Group and co-invented ChainLocks, the LLMQ-based consensus that hardened a top-tier chain against 51% attacks. Built DAPI, the decentralised API, and led the SDK and DashPay wallet teams.
- Co-invented ChainLocks, consensus tech later reused across $350B+ of projects
- Architected DAPI, the decentralised API layer, and led wallet & SDK teams
- Ran crisis response on critical security disclosures
RWA protocol
DeFi & RWA protocol architecture
Architecture and core engineering for a real-world-asset protocol tokenising gold and housing, designed for on-chain transparency, a reusable signer layer, and an audit path from day one.
- Designed the tokenization and settlement architecture (RWA)
- On-chain transparency and proof systems
- Shared signer layer built once, reusable across protocols
Zebitex
Exchange & market-data infrastructure
Exchange APIs and trading infrastructure for a French centralised crypto exchange: standardised market data, order flow and the kind of correctness and uptime money demands.

- Audit-ready datasets for regulated reporting (NAV, CARF, IFRS)
- Public data API: OHLCV, trades, funding, Greeks
National grid operator
Event-driven systems & integration
Event-driven microservices for a national electrical-grid operator, the kind of real-time, high-reliability integration where downtime is not an option.
- Event-driven microservice architecture at scale
- Real-time messaging (ZMQ, RabbitMQ)
- Reliability for critical national infrastructure
JMES World
Head of engineering & protocol architecture

- DAO governance, on-chain identity and funding system
- EU-compliant art tokenization model (Warhol, contemporary art)
- React Native mobile app and Web3 connectivity libraries
Scintilla Network
Protocol design & full-stack engineering
Designed and built a next-generation Layer-1 blockchain from the ground up: consensus, P2P networking, cryptographic primitives, SDK, wallet and client libraries.
- Consensus design and P2P networking stack
- Post-quantum oriented cryptographic primitives
- Full SDK, wallet, client and browser extension
Trakx
Early-stage consulting & feasibility
