Milap Sheth is a senior engineering leader with 10 years of experience building secure, cross-chain and cryptographic systems, currently leading engineering for Arc at Circle in Canada. He progressed from hands‑on cryptography and protocol work—implementing threshold ECDSA, cross-chain messaging, and bridges across Solidity, Move, CosmWasm and Soroban—to leading engineering and smart-contract teams at Interop Labs. His background spans post‑quantum cryptanalysis, quantum compiler research, and production security engineering, reflecting a rare blend of academic rigor and production-grade delivery. Milap is comfortable moving between low-level crypto implementations in Rust/C and high-level system design and operations, including bug bounties and chain integrations. Notably, he has contributed to real-world threshold signature tooling and optimized cryptographic primitives, demonstrating both research depth and measurable performance improvements.
