Q: What inspired you to join the Validation Cloud team and how do you see your role contributing to the mission of the company?

A: I was inspired to join Validation Cloud because I was truly impressed by the company’s achievements with such a small team, especially in tackling the numerous engineering challenges that Validation Cloud encounters.

I see myself contributing to the company’s mission by bringing my skills and expertise to support the team’s diverse efforts.

Q: What is your role at Validation Cloud, and could you share some details about your previous experience and background?

A: As a Senior Software Engineer, my role at Validation Cloud is to bring extensive expertise in software development and technology solutions to the team. Previously, I served as the Tech Lead at the Faraway Platform, where the primary focus was on bringing Web3 mechanics and open economy concepts to the gaming and creators industry.

Furthermore, during my time at Lyft I was building a navigation app with a specific emphasis on real-time traffic and road closures. I developed a vector tile server that provided traffic and closures layers for the Lyft map.

Q: What are your thoughts on the potential impact of Web3 technology, and how do you think Validation Cloud can help organizations tap into its potential?

A: I see Web3 technology as a game-changer, revolutionizing the internet and digital assets. Validation Cloud’s role is to enable organizations to harness its potential without the hassle of dealing with infrastructure complexities.

Q: What do you think sets Validation Cloud apart from other Web3 infrastructure companies?

A: What sets Validation Cloud apart from other Web3 infrastructure companies is our global reach and commitment to providing the best possible service in every region. As a global node provider, we take pride in offering the lowest latency in nearly every geographical area.

Q: Which team values resonate with you the most, and why?

A: Two of the team values at Validation Cloud that resonate with me the most are “Commitment to excellence” and “Solutions orientation.” I take pride in striving for the highest quality in everything I do, whether it’s in software development or problem-solving and my “commitment to excellence” at Validation Cloud will be no exception. “Solutions orientation” resonates with me because I’m focused on addressing actual problems.

Q: How do you plan on collaborating with other team members to deliver highly performant and customizable products in staking, node, and data-as-a-service?

A: I plan to communicate closely with all team members to identify any pain points we may have and to gain a deep understanding of the reasons behind our current service implementations. Using this as a starting point, I will work with the team to come up with new ideas and solutions.

Q: What do you like to do outside of work? Any hobbies or interests outside of Web3?

A: I like to spend time with my family. I’m also a big fan of mountain biking and speed chess.
