Curriculum vitae

Asam Shan

Senior software engineer

I build products that make complex systems easier to use. My work spans wallet analytics, governance, bridging, and staking, from the first usable interface through to production integrations and release tooling.

I work mainly in TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Node.js. Alongside product delivery, I build the tools, tests, and documentation that make the next piece of work easier.
