👋 Hi! I am a 23 years old full-stack software engineer, based in Cluj-Napoca/RO.
My programming journey started in 2013 with Java, when I started writing mods for the popular survival game, Minecraft.
Between 2013 and 2014 I started programming Lego NXT robots and once coded Snake on it for some reason.
Later, in 2014 I participated in the Cicada 3301 online puzzle, which got me hooked on cryptography.
I've considered myself a privacy advocate since. I like to prototype privacy-oriented, decentralized solutions, such as the privy peer-to-peer chat application built on IPFS and OrbitDB.
In my free time I like to go hiking, play basketball or (try) cooking
Work
I currently work at @minyma technologies as a backend/blockchain engineer since 2022. I design smart contracts in Solidity for the @galaxis community space.
Begginging with 2022 I became a part of the development team behind quino.ai, an AI assisted note-taking, study platform. I contributed to the backend of the application, leading to a successful launch in February 2023, currently counting over 50,000 signups.
Previously employed at @accenture in 2021. I helped migrate an old C++ codebase to modern standards and developed some automated migration tools.
Education
🎓 I graduated from @utcn, with a bachelor's degree as software engineer, in 2022. Before that I studied computer science and C/C++ programming in high school.
