Software Engineer at Story Protocol
Urbana, Illinois, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJongwon Park is a software engineer with 8 years of multidisciplinary experience at the intersection of blockchain and machine learning, currently building protocol and smart contract infrastructure at Story Protocol. He has hands-on experience across EVM and non-EVM ecosystems (Solana, Sui), Rust and Solidity development, and has shipped production Web3 dApps, on-chain trading tools, and audited NFT contracts. Jongwon’s academic work blends NLP and multimodal ML—he contributed to a novel BERT-style model that models knowledge consolidation and has deployed ML models in compute-restricted, real-time settings. At UIUC he built a DAO+AI system for 200+ participants with sub-300ms live chat latency, reflecting both systems engineering and UX optimization chops. Comfortable across C/C++, Go, TypeScript, and Python, he pairs low-level performance sensibilities with product-minded protocol design. He’s equally likely to debate consensus trade-offs as to evangelize Rust—bringing a pragmatic multi-chain worldview to complex distributed systems.
