Summary
Arijit Dutta is a Senior Research Engineer at ConsenSys with eight years of experience at the intersection of applied cryptography, blockchain privacy, and error-correcting codes. He holds a Ph.D. from IIT Bombay where his thesis proposed privacy-preserving proof-of-reserves protocols to rebuild trust in cryptocurrency exchanges, including practical implementations and simulations. Before ConsenSys he worked as a cryptography engineer at Aztec, contributing to development, security analysis, testing, and audits across privacy-focused blockchain projects. Comfortable moving research into production, he blends deep theoretical knowledge with hands-on engineering to deliver auditable, privacy-preserving cryptographic systems. Based in Kolkata, he brings a research-driven mindset to real-world blockchain challenges and an uncommon focus on combining error-correcting techniques with privacy protocols.
