Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCollin Chin is a Fullstack Software Engineer with a decade of experience building production software and a 6+ year focus on full-stack and backend systems. Based in Klang City, Malaysia, he has held roles from software developer to senior developer and now serves as a Fullstack Engineer at PolicyStreet, bringing practical experience from Toshiba Tec and Tricor Group. A co-founder of ProvableHQ, he contributes to open-source zero-knowledge tooling—updating SnarkVM, enhancing snarkOS block storage, and building JS/TS SDKs and workshops for ZK applications—demonstrating both cryptography-adjacent backend expertise and developer tooling skills. He favors maintainable, refactor-driven improvements (renames, API clarity, storage refactors) and has implemented features across decryption key handling, transaction execution, and wasm bindings. Collin pairs hands-on implementation with a knack for clean, test-backed changes, and is comfortable bridging blockchain ZK primitives with full-stack application needs.
