About

With a total of 6 years of experience in software development, I have spent 3+ years in blockchain technology, Mostly working with Rust and Solidity. My main focus have been around cross chain communication (GMP, CCTP), between EVM and Non-EVM chains, EVM Smart contract development and building blockchain node using polkadot-sdk and offchain workers. I also have experience working with Python (AI) and C#. In my free time I like to learn new technologies and play chess.

Work Experience

Analog

2022 - Present

Senior Rust Developer

My main focus in Analog has been Rust development for their timechain node built on polkadot-sdk for their cross chain gmp message protocol. I was involved in developing pallets, runtime, offchain workers, And also worked on offchain multinode for different chains. I as involved in writing libp2p networking setup for nodes as well as threshold signature scheme setup. Worked on solidity smart contract development and as well notable projects for solidity are analog-gmp, zenswap.io and firestarter.fun.

2022 - 2023

Software Engineer

Started my blockchain journey with nft marketplace in Solana. Built Solana's fractional nft platform i.e. piqsol.com using metaplex contracts and deploying modified solana smart contracts. Was outsourced to Analog as Rust developer.

Python Developer

Worked as Python developer wrote tools for improving data pre and post processing pipelines for their AI models. Also Improved Object detection models using MRCNN and YOLO 5. Trained Multiple OCR Model and made the pipeline to train model OCR models for multiple languages and improved their text reading accuracy from 70% to 95%+. Encouraging them to move to open source tools from paid tools.
