Federico Carrone
Founder at Ergodic Group
Buenos Aires, Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Argentina
Summary
👤
SeniorFederico Carrone is a founder and engineer based in Buenos Aires with 11 years building high-throughput distributed systems and data platforms that handle hundreds of millions of requests per second and petabytes of data. He leads LambdaClass and Ergodic Group, blending hands-on backend development (notably in Erlang and Rust) with operational expertise across Cassandra, Kafka, Elasticsearch and observability stacks like Grafana and Prometheus. In recent years he has pivoted toward data science, AI/ML and Bayesian methods while continuing to contribute to cryptography-adjacent open source work — including Rust implementations for the Cairo VM focused on elliptic-curve math and security testing. An organizer of local tech communities (Erlang/Elixir, Rust Argentina and BuzzConf), he pairs systems-level rigor with eclectic interests in languages, history and finance that inform pragmatic, research-driven solutions.

lambdaclass/cairo-vm
Apr 2022 - Dec 2022
cairo-vm is a Rust implementation of the Cairo VM. Cairo (CPU Algebraic Intermediate Representation) is a programming language for writing provable programs, where one party can prove to another that a certain computation was executed correctly without the need for this party to re-execute the same program.
