Senior backend / systems engineer, 23 years production. Looking for a remote senior IC role: Rust-first backends, distributed systems, fintech/crypto, AI infra / agent platforms, or founding/early eng where ownership is real. Open to strong equity on early-stage.

Recent: Owned Rust incentives/rewards services end to end (lifecycle state machines over 200K+ users, idempotent event-driven payment engine, Kafka). Built a review-gated AI delivery harness that shipped 10+ production features (four in one week in the same codebase).
