GreaterFire is a founder and back-end engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building privacy and censorship-circumvention tooling, best known for creating and maintaining the trojan project used to bypass the GFW. He designs and implements core service, client, and server components, including SSL and SOCKS5 support, configuration management, and client-side connection management. He also develops the Android client, handling JNI integration, VPN tunneling glue, and initial UX/UX plumbing to bring trojan functionality to mobile. Comfortable across low-level networking, cross-platform integrations, and mobile build systems, he combines practical engineering with an operator’s sense for resilient connectivity. An interesting detail: he signs releases with a public PGP key (0x533B0112), underscoring attention to provenance and security.
