PROFILE
Andrew Milson
Andrew Milson developed two core features across the starkware-libs/stwo-cairo and a16z/jolt repositories, focusing on cryptography and memory optimization. In starkware-libs/stwo-cairo, he enabled serialization of Blake2sHash values into Cairo FieldElements by chunking hash bytes into u32 words, facilitating direct use of cryptographic hashes in Cairo contracts and improving contract interoperability. Later, in a16z/jolt, he introduced on-the-fly LT polynomial evaluation by implementing the LtPolynomial struct in Rust, refactoring ValEvaluationSumcheck to reduce memory usage without pre-computation. His work demonstrated depth in Rust, Cairo, and zero-knowledge proofs, addressing both interoperability and scalability in cryptographic systems.

Oct 1, 2025Month: 2025-10 — Key accomplishments in a16z/jolt: implemented on-the-fly LT polynomial evaluation to reduce memory usage in ValEvaluationSumcheck by introducing LtPolynomial and refactoring the computation path. This avoids pre-computation/storage of the entire LT polynomial, yielding a smaller memory footprint and improved scalability for larger proofs. The change is backed by commit 30c5053c42fb550f0124999a694dd721ff44f636 with message 'Reduce memory in ram/val_evaluation.rs by computing LT on-the-fly'.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 monthly summary for starkware-libs/stwo-cairo focusing on feature delivery, bug fixes, and overall impact. Key feature delivered: - Cairo serialization support for Blake2sHash: Enabled serialization of Blake2sHash values into FieldElements by chunking hash bytes into u32 values and serializing each chunk. This enables Blake2sHash to be used in Cairo contracts directly (commit bde0d3a552c7280e27b3a249d85ee37ac55f642e).
