Dimitris Grigoriou is a Senior Software Engineer based in Greece with nine years of experience building secure, backend systems across blockchain, gaming, and infrastructure projects. He blends a Computer Science and System Security background from the University of Athens with hands-on contributions to notable open-source projects—adding IPv6 and NDP spoofing support to bettercap and implementing EVM/Optimism Bedrock compatibility in Chainlink. At Chainlink Labs he focuses on resilient, EVM-aware backend engineering, while prior roles span blockchain research, security analysis in the Greek Army, and high-throughput platform work at Kaizen Gaming. He brings a pragmatic security-first mindset to distributed systems and protocol-level problems, comfortable modifying core network modules and cross-chain configuration. Colleagues would describe him as a developer who moves fluently between low-level networking/security concerns and high-level blockchain integration.
