Senior Solidity engineer with 4+ years of production smart contract experience across DeFi vaults, on-chain derivatives and protocol-level RWA infrastructure. Core protocol engineer at Story/Data Foundation (6M+ IPs registered) — led a cross-functional product vertical team, drove multiple external audit rounds, and ran governance operations end-to-end.

- Led a cross-functional product vertical team (frontend, SDK, design, dev-rel) as protocol engineer — drove delivery from contract architecture through SDK/frontend integration to launch, while authoring the underlying solidity smart contracts.
- Led governance operations end-to-end: designed the governance process/setup, drove proposals from specification through Safe multisig execution for protocol upgrades and key parameter changes, coordinating signers and internal/external stakeholders.
- Led web3 internal security practice: smart contract monitoring, key smart contract reviews and ecosystem projects hardening to protect company assets.
- Fully built out the smart contracts for an on-chain options OTC desk with 10M+ USD notional volume traded.
- V2 yield-source migration of Ribbon Earn — a principal-protected structured product, 7M USD TVL — moving yield generation from lending into tokenized treasuries.
