Experience
Product & Engineering Lead (Early Team)
Mettalex - Fetch AI, Remote | (February 2023 - Present)
Founding technical leader responsible for 0→1 product, architecture, and production systems.
- Owned the product, defining roadmap, sequencing milestones, and making build vs ship tradeoffs.
- Authored High-Level Design (HLD) for the entire platform, covering system boundaries, trust assumptions, failure modes, scalability strategy, and on-chain/off-chain separation.
- Produced detailed Low-Level Designs (LLD) for critical subsystems including autonomous agent execution, order flow, matching logic, settlement pipelines, and state reconciliation.
- Designed and built end-to-end hybrid architecture: WebSocket-based real-time data flow → off-chain execution and coordination → deterministic on-chain settlement.
- Shipped and operated mainnet systems handling live user funds, autonomous trading agents, and real-time settlement under production SLAs.
- Owned smart contract architecture and interfaces, including Solidity development, upgrade strategy, audit coordination, and post-deployment fixes.
- Architected cross-chain infrastructure, enabling $1.5M+ in live asset transfers between Ethereum and BSC.
- Scaled the engineering org from 2 → 12 engineers, setting coding standards, review processes, and ownership culture.
- Led production incident response, debugging, and root-cause analysis across backend services, infrastructure, and smart contracts.
- Owned technical narrative for fundraising and IP strategy, securing $1M non-dilutive grant funding and serving as co-inventor on 2 filed patents.
