Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSuyash Bagad is a cryptography researcher with a decade of experience focused on applied cryptography, zero-knowledge proofs, number theory, and cryptocurrency privacy. He has driven protocol design and implementation—from research at IIT Bombay producing RevelioBP and MProve+ with O(log n) proof sizes to engineering roles at Aztec making private, affordable Ethereum transactions. Currently at Ingonyama, he is working on hardware acceleration for zero-knowledge proofs, blending low-level optimization with cryptographic theory. He implemented novel protocols in Rust and achieved 10x verification speedups via single multi-exponentiation, demonstrating both mathematical rigor and practical performance tuning. Beyond research, he has taught cryptography and led large-scale volunteer initiatives, showing aptitude for communication and project leadership. Based in Mumbai, he combines academic depth and production-grade engineering to make privacy-preserving cryptography more practical and auditable.
