Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdlai C is a seasoned software engineer and quantitative developer with 16 years of experience building automated trading systems for Bitcoin and its derivatives under the self-styled role "Volatility Harvester." Based in Tel Aviv, he blends deep back-end engineering—demonstrated by contributions to the SLIME Emacs project improving server reliability and connection management—with applied crypto privacy work from an early JoinMarket stint. Comfortable at the intersection of systems programming, trading infrastructure, and experimental tooling, he favors pragmatic, high-leverage solutions over formality and responds on his own cadence. Known as an autodidact with a contrarian streak, he pairs a literary background with hands-on engineering to produce robust, often unconventional systems for opaque markets.
