Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNikhil Parasaram is a software engineer with a PhD in Computer Science from UCL and eight years of experience building security and program-analysis tooling. His research on automated program repair—recognized with an ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished Paper Award—complements hands-on work developing Mythril at ConsenSys, a widely used smart-contract analysis tool with thousands of GitHub stars and hundreds of thousands of downloads. He has blended academic rigor and practical engineering through internships at Max Planck and industry roles including ConsenSys and now Uber, applying program analysis, fuzzing, symbolic execution, and ML to real-world security problems. Comfortable across research and production code, he brings deep expertise in automated debugging and smart-contract security and a track record of shipping tools that scale beyond the lab. An often-overlooked strength is his experience translating cutting-edge research into widely adopted open-source tooling.
