Summary
Fabiana Cecin is a protocol engineer and computer scientist with 12 years building distributed systems, now focused on applying blockchain to create dependable, real-world infrastructure. She holds a PhD in Computer Science and has moved between deep research and hands-on engineering roles—from VLSI tool development at Intel to core Antelope and smart contract work in C++ and Solidity. As a cofounder and CSO of a startup and later protocol engineer at Waku, she blends product-minded design with rigorous research and consulting experience. Her work emphasizes robust protocol construction and tooling rather than merely prototyping, and she often bridges low-level systems and contract-level logic. Based in Paraná, Brazil, she brings academic depth and practical delivery to complex decentralized systems.
