Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTimofey Yaluhin is a Principal Research Engineer based in Berlin with nine years of hands-on experience spanning enterprise C#/.NET development, Go-driven infrastructure and DevOps, and recent research-focused work in cryptography and circuit engineering. Currently at ChainSafe Systems, he builds R&D solutions for blockchains, verifiable computation, and zkLightClient primitives, blending deep systems engineering with applied crypto research. He has a proven track record delivering production-grade multi-cloud platforms and CI/CD ecosystems at companies like Epic Games, while also launching open-source projects and a consumer-facing microservice platform that fueled his shift toward DevOps. Comfortable across languages from C# and Go to Rust, Timofey uniquely pairs pragmatic product delivery with formal research instincts—often prototyping low-level cryptographic circuits and tooling that bridge theory and deployable systems. Not actively seeking opportunities, he shares work and experiments publicly and favors ambitious technical challenges that mix distributed systems, security, and performance.
