Worked on the Anastasia-Labs/midgard repository, delivering end-to-end backend and on-chain infrastructure for Cardano-based smart contracts and protocol specifications. Over nine months, contributed features and fixes spanning fraud-proof validation, settlement queue logic, and withdrawal flows, with a focus on reliability, security, and maintainability. Leveraged Haskell, Aiken, and LaTeX to implement formal specifications, automate build processes, and streamline CI/CD workflows. Enhanced protocol documentation and technical diagrams to clarify transaction flows and governance, while upgrading fraud-proof storage to Merkle Patricia Trie for efficiency. Addressed configuration, dependency management, and repository hygiene, enabling safer deployments and faster onboarding for downstream teams.
