PROFILE

Riley-kilgore

Worked extensively on the input-output-hk/glyph repository, delivering core features for smart contract execution, cryptographic operations, and serialization. Developed a UPLC to RISC-V compiler, implemented CEK runtime semantics, and engineered robust BLS cryptography support, focusing on correctness, memory management, and test coverage. Refactored serialization logic and modularized built-ins to improve maintainability and onboarding. Enhanced emulator capabilities and introduced validation workflows for Plutus and BitVMX artifacts. Used Rust, Zig, and TypeScript to build efficient backend systems, emphasizing data integrity, dependency management, and reproducible builds. Prioritized documentation, conformance testing, and CI/CD reliability to support secure, auditable, and scalable protocol development.

February 2026 (2026-02) Glyph monthly summary: Focused on reliability, maintainability, and demonstrable business value through two feature suites and a core bug fix. Delivered BitVMX demo enhancements with a new instruction mappings file and execution scripts to ensure reliable execution, alongside code quality improvements via formatting and linting. Fixed a linking issue in the BitVMX demo and added demo artifacts to improve reproducibility. Created and documented a comprehensive Aiken smart contract validator deployment demo on the Bitcoin testnet, detailing pipeline, components, on-chain transactions, architecture, and issues encountered. Demonstrated strong Rust tooling skills, on-chain workflow experience, and clear technical communication for customer-facing demos. Business impact: higher reliability of demos, faster onboarding for BitVMX usage, and a tangible demonstration of smart contract validation in a testnet environment.
