I build high-performance optimization systems in DeFi.
As a member of the Algorithm Research team at Odos, I re-architected the trade-routing engine that powers ~350M quotes/day and routes ~$300M in daily volume. I integrated 5 novel AMMs, exposing ~$1B of liquidity across 100+ pools, by modeling their trading functions off-chain and deriving analytic gradients to support simulation-based optimization. I reduced quote latency by 30% through rigorous concurrency design and caching, cut internal API calls by 70% (~400M/day), lowered Redis data throughput by 90%, and built a quote benchmarking suite that produces granular timing insights used to drive our latency-reduction roadmap. I also designed and shipped the full backend for the Odos loyalty program (250K requests/day, 400,000 claims, $20M claimed).
Previously, as Lead Blockchain Engineer at Ax Research, I launched a cross-chain stablecoin spanning 9 EVM chains with smart contracts mathematically guaranteeing a $1.00 price. Notably, I received my paycheck in the currency I built.
I’m currently pursuing an M.S. in Computer Science (ML specialization) at Georgia Tech and hold a Mechanical Engineering degree from Purdue.
Always open to building with people who think deeply about engineering, math, or hard problems.
