Led the core engineering team responsible for implementing the codebase that governs RSR and its interactions with RSV and reserve baskets. Concrete responsibilities included writing and reviewing the token contract, integrating oracles and governance modules, coordinating third-party security audits, and managing on-chain deployment procedures and upgrade paths. Directed technical remediation and patching processes following audit findings, and approved interface changes necessary for integrations with decentralized exchanges and custodial partners. These hands-on engineering decisions determined token behavior in edge cases, upgradeability patterns, and the operational reliability of RSR in production environments. Coordinated with ecosystem developers to produce client libraries, deployment scripts and monitoring tools that allowed market makers, liquidity providers and exchanges to integrate RSR. The engineering choices directly influenced how custodians and exchanges accepted the token, how automated market makers could interact with it, and the practical security posture seen by institutional counterparties.
