Riteish Nikhoria

Senior Backend & Platform Engineer

Hi there 👋

I'm Riteish, a Senior Backend & Platform Engineer with 7+ years spanning backend systems, platform/infrastructure, and AI agent development. I build production LLM agent infrastructure such as agent harnesses, memory and knowledge systems, and retrieval and summarization pipelines, and I integrate the Claude API and Model Context Protocol into developer and product workflows.

My foundation is deep backend work in Rust (Tokio, Axum), Go, and Node.js: event-driven microservices, gRPC/REST/WebSocket APIs, and high-throughput data pipelines on PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB. I own platform and reliability end to end across Kubernetes (GKE and EKS), Terraform infrastructure-as-code, multi-cloud CI/CD with zero-downtime rollouts, and Prometheus/Grafana observability with SRE-grade alerting. I'm comfortable owning systems from architecture through deployment and on-call. I also ship across EVM and Solana smart contracts, account abstraction (ERC-4337), and DeFi protocols.

What I work with

  • Languages: Rust, Go, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Solidity
  • Backend: microservices, event-driven architecture, REST, gRPC, WebSockets, Tokio, Axum, Actix, Gin, Express.js
  • Platform: Kubernetes (GKE, EKS), Docker, Terraform, GitHub Actions, AWS, GCP, Prometheus, Grafana, SLOs
  • AI Agents: Claude, Anthropic SDK, MCP, memory and knowledge systems, retrieval and summarization pipelines, vector databases
  • Data: PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, SQLite
  • On-chain: EVM and Solana, ERC-4337, DeFi, ethers.js, viem, Foundry, Hardhat, Anchor

Experiences

Backend & Systems: Built Go and Rust services for indexing, position tracking, and APY computation with concurrent worker pools, syncing on-chain state into low-latency APIs across millions of daily events without state drift. Exposed gRPC/REST/WebSocket APIs on PostgreSQL, with high-throughput Tokio/Axum pipelines tuned via zero-copy parsing and bounded concurrency, plus a Rust relayer/keeper for exactly-once execution under load.

Platform & Reliability: Owned the platform stack: Kubernetes on GKE/EKS provisioned with Terraform, GitHub Actions CI/CD with rolling deploys and automated rollback across GCP and AWS, and SLO-backed alerting on latency and error budgets to cut time-to-detect through proactive monitoring.

AI Agent Infrastructure: 50+ merged PRs to OpenHuman, a Rust + TypeScript open-source agent harness. Designed the agent's memory tree and knowledge base with a canonicalization, chunking, and summarization pipeline backed by embedded SQLite, and built typed tool interfaces and OAuth-connector flows for safe external service invocation.

Blockchain & DeFi: Designed and optimized AMMs and Uniswap V3-influenced lending and borrowing. Integrated ERC-4337 account abstraction with session keys and gasless transactions, built a LayerZero OFT for Base to Solana transfers, and wrote Solana programs in Rust with Anchor. Deployed across Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Linea, zkSync, Optimism, Manta, and Solana, with Chainlink/Pyth/TWAP oracle pipelines and a betting-settlement contract optimized to cut computation time by 40%.

What I'm Building

Currently contributing to OpenHuman (TinyHumans), a Rust + TypeScript open-source AI agent harness, with 50+ merged PRs across the Rust core, Tauri desktop app, and developer tooling. Alongside this I build protocol tooling such as MantissaFi, a fully on-chain European options protocol computing Black-Scholes pricing and Greeks entirely in Solidity, verified with Foundry fuzz/invariant tests and Certora/Halmos formal proofs.
