Summary
Franco Mangone is a senior blockchain developer with 11 years of engineering experience, currently building enterprise-grade solutions for energy and carbon markets on Hedera and leading blockchain initiatives at SpaceDev. He combines deep technical knowledge in blockchain and zero-knowledge techniques with a strong foundation in chemical engineering, bringing a systems-thinking approach to protocol design and real-world integrations. Franco has taught blockchain courses at two Uruguayan universities, translating advanced concepts into practical curricula and mentoring the next generation of developers. His background spans full-stack and mobile development (React/React Native) as well as core blockchain roles, enabling him to bridge front-end UX with secure, auditable back-end systems.
