PROFILE

Brett Decker

Decker contributed to cryptographic verification and secure computation projects, focusing on modularity, maintainability, and onboarding. On GaloisInc/ckzg-eip-4844-verification, Decker refactored curve and pairing modules, improved property-based testing, and enhanced documentation to support production-grade EIP-4844 verification. Using Rust, Cryptol, and Makefile, Decker streamlined test infrastructure and clarified API naming, reducing maintenance overhead and improving CI reliability. In GaloisInc/swanky, Decker introduced trait-level refactors and modularized AND gate logic, enabling future extensibility in Rust-based garbled circuit evaluation. Across repositories, Decker’s work emphasized code clarity, technical documentation, and onboarding improvements, demonstrating depth in cryptography, backend development, and formal verification.

Work History

February 2026

5 Commits • 2 Features

Feb 1, 2026

February 2026: Architectural refinements to the garbling workflow and gate modularity in swanky to improve evaluation consistency and future extensibility. Delivered trait-level refactors that centralize evaluation logic, introduced a modular approach to AND gate garbling through a new BinaryWireLabel trait, and standardized terminology across the codebase to reduce confusion and maintenance overhead.

April 2025 monthly summary for rems-project/cn: Improved developer onboarding by documenting OCaml environment initialization. The README now instructs users to run "eval $(opam env)" after "opam init" to ensure the OCaml development environment is correctly configured, reducing setup friction for new contributors. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was on documentation quality and onboarding reliability to accelerate contributions and reduce support needs. Main reference: commit 849b5de9164a71e67ecba8ee5e52876a3d014b33 (readme: Add eval $(opam env) to step 3 of install (#40)).

Dec 1, 2024

December 2024 (2024-12) - Delivered targeted documentation enhancements and initial project scaffolding to advance verification and DSL development. Key activities spanned CKZG-EIP-4844 verification final report refinement (image/name/link corrections, new test bench details, Cryptol/SAW proofs progress, and updated PDFs), BLS EC documentation, and zkLean project initialization and branding. These efforts improved transparency, reproducibility, planning accuracy, and readiness for ongoing SAW/Cryptol work and DSL development.

Nov 1, 2024

November 2024: Improved maintainability, reliability, and clarity across two repositories. Delivered documentation and testing infrastructure enhancements for the ckzg-eip-4844-verification suite, clarified API naming for bit reversal permutations, and stabilized build/test pipelines, plus a maintenance license update in swanky. These efforts reduce maintenance overhead, accelerate onboarding, and tighten CI feedback loops while preserving existing behavior and API contracts.

Oct 1, 2024

October 2024 monthly summary for GaloisInc/ckzg-eip-4844-verification. Delivered a major refactor of Curve and GP modules to improve modularity and maintainability, reorganized tests and docs for reliability, and advanced the cryptographic property coverage and performance of multi-scalar paths. The work aligns with readiness for production-grade EIP-4844 verification and accelerates future development cycles.
