About

Hey there! I'm Igor, a lead software engineer with over six years of software development expertise (mostly Rust, c and C++) and three years specializing in blockchain and zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technologies. I hold a Master’s in Computer Science from the University of Waterloo and have dedicated my career to building resilient systems and breaking down complex concepts to help others succeed in their programming journeys. Whether it's diving deep into blockchain applications or leveraging Rust for high-performance solutions, I’m here to share my insights and passion for problem-solving.

My background spans system design, compilers, and low-level programming, where I've honed the skills to optimize performance and streamline complex processes. Mentoring is a true passion for me—I enjoy guiding others, learning through the process, and seeing mentees progress on their unique paths. There’s nothing more rewarding than being part of their journey and helping them achieve their goals. When I'm not mentoring or programming, you’ll find me experimenting with new baking recipes or perfecting my serve on the tennis court. Let’s connect, learn, and maybe swap a recipe or two along the way!

I was about to lose my job and scrambling to get ready to job hunt again. At the same time, I really grew in my previous role and also picked up Rust so I really wanted to get some advice on how to proceed there. Igor helped work my resume and gave me great advice on how to improve with Rust. I definitely don't regret getting his help when I needed it.

I came in with well thought-through project I wanted to accomplish in Rust. Igor helped me to resolve a few bugs in Rust code and to convert the idea to a specific plan I can work on independently now.

Igor is a great mentor in that he injects real-world insights as you develop your side projects. If you know what you want to build, he's an excellent guide.
