Hey guys, after a long run at @epochdotm , I’m back on the lookout for my next opportunity.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve built:
- infrastructure handling 100K+ asset mint operations
- Rust backend & networking systems
- event-driven and real-time WebSocket systems
- @solana infrastructure & smart contracts
- products shipped from idea to production
Now looking for Rust, Backend, Distributed Systems or Infrastructure roles.
Open to full-time, contract & freelance.
If you’re building something hard and hiring engineers, I’d love to talk.
RTs & intros mean a lot.

hey , I’m Sauraj.
21, final year CSE | DevOps engineer.
- In class 11th: worked at PPUI and CipherOS (2021)
- In starting of class 12th: built an Android dump automation workflow that got 500+ dumps
- In the end of class 12th: built a JEE CLI counselling tool used by 3.5K+ users, with 0 marketing
- 2023: worst year of my life. Grinded for JEE and still ended up at a tier-3 college.
- 1st & 2nd year: explored as many domains as I could and became president of one club.
- In the end of 2nd year: started interning in DevOps, the domain I ended up loving the most.
- In my pre-final year: got a PPO at an L2 role.
one thing i’ve realised through all these years: i fkinn love tech and want to contribute to it as much as i can.
So here i am. will share projects, learnings, and try to help folks from tier-3 colleges :P

A career update - my contract with @spicenet just ended where I worked as a Forward Deployed Engineer. Learnt a lot there working with my peers, maintaining internal repos, doing integration for a variety of clients.
Now I'm actively looking for a backend, blockchain or rust role being experienced in these. Hit me up if you are looking for such an engineer.

Spice Flow is now live in public beta mainnet and available to everyone using @reppo.
We're breaking down the barriers between chains and bringing a new era of superior UX for everyone.
Whether your assets are on @ethereum, @arbitrum, @base, @monad, @0xPolygon, @BNBCHAIN, @RobinhoodApp Chain, or @citrea_xyz, you can now use Reppo directly from your preferred chain.
Go try it now on reppo.ai 🌶️

I miss those couple of almost meditative, deep flow state hours I used to have while writing code every day, but even just fast prototyping and never getting stuck starting something are worth much more.
Don't romanticize the past. Move on, lock in, and contrary to what the slop KOLs say, read and be proud of your code.
Software engineers burning out thanks to using AI coding tools is becoming a major problem I don't see anyone talk about all that much. There's some "vampire effect" in these tools, and it drains a lot of devs.
This video by @stolinski is a very good and important one, to start:

Last night an infrastructure provider used by some Solana validators had a failure. You probably didn't notice, because the network didn't: blocks kept producing and transactions kept landing.
The facts:
- The Solana network remained operational
- 597 of 699 staked validators kept voting, roughly 6 out of 7
- Affected validators recovered within 40 minutes
- Validators in the Solana Foundation Delegation Program (SFDP) were unaffected
Because Solana validators are distributed across independent infrastructure providers, the failure of a single provider did not interrupt the network. This is decentralization and infrastructure diversity working as intended, and a proof point for Solana’s resiliency though periods of stress.

btw in your 20's and 30’s you’ll start rediscovering the niche interests and hobbies you had as a kid. it’s very important you revisit them. your younger self was actually on to something.
