Working on rollup infrastructure and EVM-level customizations. My work focuses on building core rollup primitives, precompiles, and integrations that make it easier to launch, operate, and scale Ethereum rollups.

Hi, I'm Dhruv, an engineer passionate about research in blockchain, cryptography, and decentralized systems. My interests include Zero Knowledge, Modular Blockchain, and DeFi.
Currently, I'm working as an Engineer at Conduit, building rollup infrastructure. Alongside, I'm experimenting & building systems, deepening my understanding of protocols and core Ethereum architecture. As a three-time ETHGlobal finalist and a frequent hackathon participant, I'm always eager to take on new challenges and push the boundaries of what's possible.
I like travelling and photography, and I'm always up for a good conversation about the latest in tech or engineering. Feel free to reach out.
