Dmitry Sorkin
Co-Founder at Velarium
Israel
Summary
🤩
RockstarDmitry Sorkin is a staff-level systems engineer and co-founder with nearly two decades of experience building high-performance, low-level software across cryptography, VMs, and runtime tooling. He specializes in Rust and C++ unsafe systems programming, SIMD/assembly (AVX-512, SVE2), and squeezing software performance close to hardware limits while keeping code production-grade. At Matter Labs he delivered SIMD-optimized cryptographic tooling, a custom RISC-V interpreter with ~5.8 cycles per guest instruction, and a high-throughput circuit resolution pipeline; he now leads next-gen execution infrastructure for Ethereum at Velarium. His background spans compilers, ELF/DWARF tooling, WebAssembly runtimes, and VM profiling, and he’s happiest buried in deep technical research and rapid domain mastery. Notably, he has a track record of turning low-level breakthroughs (e.g., 37% FFT improvement and kernel-level ARM wins) into deployable systems rather than lab proofs. Based in Israel, he’s open to challenges wherever software needs to hug the CPU.
