Top SchoolMatilda Clerke is a Senior Blockchain Protocol Engineer based in Melbourne with a decade-plus background building secure, high-throughput payment and enterprise systems. She transitioned from hands-on payment gateway and cryptography work at ADVAM—designing PCI-compliant RSA/EC, AES and HSM-backed solutions—to roles at Canva and now ConsenSys, blending payments security with blockchain protocol engineering. Her experience spans Java, PHP, Spring, AWS and message-driven architectures, and she has deep practical knowledge of standards like P2PE and AS-2805. Comfortable moving between legacy modernization and cutting-edge distributed ledger protocols, she brings a pragmatic focus on security, compliance, and reliable production delivery. An engineer who quietly bridges payments cryptography and blockchain, she’s adept at turning complex regulatory constraints into operable, auditable systems.
