Software engineer. Expert in blockchain/smart contracts and backend/server/APIs.

I'm leading Augur's solidity development for our latest project, Turbo.This includes writing an ecosystem of contracts from scratch and integrating or adapting existing contracts. As well as providing domain knowledge and advice for other team members' solidity work and advising management on the possibilities and constraints of the modern Ethereum (and layer 2) ecosystem.

Dackie is a crowdfunding platform based on the concept of a dominant assurance contract. In a dominant assurance contract, the entrepreneur stakes a small percentage of the funds they want to raise. If the project doesn't hit its funding goal, the stake gets distributed among the people who did fund it.On other crowdfunding sites, if you donate to a campaign that doesn't meet its goal, you get your money back. On our platform, if you donate to a campaign that doesn't meet its goal, you not only get your money back, you get a small bonus payout. We should have a much higher success rate than other crowdfunding sites.We support both cryptocurrency and fiat.

My responsibilities include designing testplans, writing testcases, running testcases, automating testcases, writing tools, verifying fixes, and investigating odd or unknown behavior.I work entirely in software and mostly in python.

Found bugs in hardware or low-level software, verified bug fixes, automated the test suite, and figured out new tests to do to expand coverage.
