Top SchoolAlex Bazhenov is a Staff Engineer specializing in stablecoins and payments with 11 years of experience building secure, high-throughput financial infrastructure across Solidity, Typescript, Node, Python, and Go. He has led product and engineering at startups and enterprise-facing teams—designing NYDFS-compliant stablecoin issuance, custody, and remittance platforms that integrate banking, KYC/AML, and real-time subledgering.

Comfortable translating regulatory complexity into productized APIs, he’s driven firms from founding architecture to scale, including institutional trading and settlement systems that handled thousands of orders per second. Based in Denver, his background in linguistics and Japanese informs a methodical, analytical approach to protocol design and developer ergonomics.
