Summary
Irfan Šarić is a pragmatic engineering leader and Co-Founder/CTO with 11+ years building high-performance systems across telco, finance, and blockchain domains. He blends deep systems programming (Modern C++, Go, Scala, Rust) with cloud-native architecture (Kubernetes, AWS/GCP) and data-first backends (Postgres, Cassandra) to deliver resilient, compliant platforms. His recent work spans payment rails and KYC/transaction monitoring to blockchain asset services and on-chain contract logic, reflecting a rare mix of fintech compliance and crypto-native engineering. He has led teams and refactored critical distributed clients to improve scalability and fault tolerance, and has repeatedly architected multi-AZ, CI/CD-driven infrastructures for production-grade reliability. Based in Oregon with roots in Bosnia and Herzegovina, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with hands-on delivery—often stepping into code to solve the hardest system and performance issues himself.
