AltLayer
Senior Software Engineer / Product Engineer
Founding frontend engineer of Rumour and Autonome (both built from zero), plus full-stack delivery across Wizard / Rollup-as-a-Service, AVS-as-a-Service, AltLLM, AltClaw, 8004scan, and the internal MCP server platform. Operated as a high-ownership product engineer responsible for implementation, refactoring, testing, debugging, UI delivery, and cross-functional execution.
What grew here
The season, in detail.
Founding frontend engineer on Rumour and Autonome; frontend lead on Rumour through several iterations to production launch — pixel/Minecraft UI, Hyperliquid perps, OKX + LI.FI bridging, Tencent Chat social layer, shipped from one React + Vite codebase as a PWA, Farcaster Miniapp, and LINE DappPortal Mini Dapp.
Took ownership of the handed-over MCP server platform as de-facto lead — built and maintained ~37 protocol MCP servers for Web3/DeFi (~176 tools across EVM + Solana) integrated into AltLLM's multi-model LLM platform, with READ operations free and WRITE operations behind explicit user confirmation.
Designed the per-protocol MCP architecture and guided tool-calling (schema-level examples, workflow hints) so weaker/open-source LLMs reliably select tools without fabricating arguments; built the dual-model LLM validation harness that reached ~97% pass across ~37 protocols / ~176 tools.
Helped convert the MCP project into a stateless Hono API — owned the Next.js → Hono migration end-to-end while keeping the public API stable.
Shipped Wizard / RaaS end-to-end product surfaces — OP Stack launch with dispute-game fraud proofs, Arbitrum Orbit playground and mainnet flows, deployments dashboard, fee withdrawal, and the billing and admin tooling behind production rollups — and introduced domain-driven design as RaaS, AVS, and Autonome converged into one frontend.
Owned the Deploy AVS multi-step flow, marketplace UI, and team-settings actions on AVS-as-a-Service; shipped Autonome's framework-discovery gallery, Eliza configuration flow, and deployment UX.
On AltLLM, led MCP-DeFi integration into the OpenAI-compatible inference gateway, hardened onchain swaps on CDP wallets with Tenderly pre-flight simulation, hardened billing and credits, and owned a major share of Playwright E2E coverage; worked in GCP + Kubernetes deployment contexts.
On AltClaw, hardened auth/session/proxy paths to fail-closed, built the Playwright E2E suite from scratch, shipped the SSE VM-log viewer, and drove security-audit remediation through agentic orchestrator workflows — findings converted to epics and burned down with automated and manual verification on Docker Compose stacks.
On 8004scan, designed and shipped the in-app conversational chat surface, the public developer API (key auth, tiered rate limiting, OpenAPI + Swagger), and cross-shell responsiveness across web, PWA, and Capacitor iOS/Android — with a typed API client generated from the OpenAPI spec enforcing the FE/BE contract at compile time.
Wrote Playwright E2E tests in a dedicated testing repository across products, using Synpress wherever MetaMask wallet-signing flows were involved.
