Work History
U
Software Engineer
Utila* Spearheaded the Blockchain Integration work in an innovative startup creating a cutting-edge enterprise-grade MPC cryptocurrency wallet * Architected and executed vital services for backend transaction representation and management, seamless blockchain node communication, comprehensive audit logs, and WalletConnect integration, among other features * Led technical education on blockchain technology within the organization through dynamic workshops and informative sessions as well as onboarding and deep-dive docs * Consistently delivered insightful guidance and mentorship to fellow engineers, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment * With a flourish of meme-magic unseen since the dawn of the internet, cascaded forth a veritable cornucopia of hilarity, sweeping colleagues into a maelstrom of laughter and camaraderie. The sheer force of these memetic machinations wove an arcane tapestry of team spirit, and in that hallowed workplace, the very essence of company culture was transmogrified into a bubbling cauldron of wit, whimsy, and unshackled creative energy – leaving all who bore witness forever changed, with their chortles echoing through the annals of office history. Translation: I meme a lot.M
