Summary
Kareem Moussa is a seasoned software engineer with 11 years of experience building secure, high-throughput backend systems and infra for crypto and cloud platforms. Based in New York, he has driven critical work at Coinbase (cold storage, hot/cold signing gateways, and platform auth), led orchestration and signing engines at Superblocks, and built privacy-forward Phantom Auth systems including a Rust + TEE rewrite. He excels at productionizing complex security primitives—service-to-service key management, fine-grained policy engines, and high-traffic code-signing protocols—and recently moved into GPU infrastructure engineering. Colleagues rely on him to simplify human-in-the-loop workflows and harden systems against insider threats while enabling rapid iteration. His background includes internships at Apple and experience teaching and tutoring, reflecting a blend of practical engineering and a habit of making complex concepts accessible.
