Summary
Cory Gabrielsen is a Director of Engineering and founding contributor with 12 years of experience building high-performance systems across blockchain, ML, robotics, and large-scale logistics. He led transportation forecasting and optimization at Amazon driving systems that informed $25B+ annual spend, co-invented and shipped autonomous laser-weeding robots at Carbon Robotics, and now architects the W3 protocol that processes millions of on-chain workflows for enterprise finance. A hands-on polyglot, his work spans Rust, TypeScript, Solidity, libp2p, and compilers, with deep experience in EVM, zero-knowledge proofs, and virtual machines. He co-founded several Ethereum-native projects—including the Ethereum Follow Protocol and OpenAvatar—and ranked among the top ENS DAO delegates by global voting power. Known for turning research-grade ideas into production IP and patents, he blends product-driven engineering with a founder’s instinct for scalable protocol design. Based in Los Angeles with a dual CS and Math degree from the University of Washington, he quietly pairs a long view of decentralization with pragmatic delivery.
