Summary
Alireza Arjmand is Head of Security Research with nine years of experience specializing in smart contract auditing and on-chain protocol security for EVM platforms. He combines academic rigor from a Master’s in Electrical and Electronics Engineering with hands-on roles at OpenZeppelin, decentralized audit competitions like Code4rena and Sherlock, and independent audits. Known for hunting subtle protocol failures, he treats decentralization as both design principle and threat model, routinely moving between research and practical remediation. Based in Canada, he has progressed from frontend engineering to leading security teams and labs, bridging product-facing code and deep protocol analysis. Colleagues describe him as someone who finds a vocation in fixing things that don't seem broken—spotting issues others overlook and turning them into actionable, auditable fixes.
