Cor Pruijs is a pragmatic founder and CTO with 11 years of software engineering experience, currently building Union Labs' trust-minimized, zero-knowledge bridging protocol. He combines hands-on backend development—authoring a TypeScript SDK for CosmWasm transfers—with deep Rust and Nix enthusiasm from prior roles at Composable Finance and other startups. As a serial entrepreneur and freelance engineer, he has repeatedly shipped secure, production-ready systems across blockchain, web frontends, and data-driven products. Based in the Netherlands, he pairs practical implementation skills with system-level thinking and an emphasis on censorship resistance and high security. Notably, his open-source work on unionlabs/union reflects both protocol-level understanding and attention to developer ergonomics in cross-chain tooling.
