Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTarun Khasnavis is a founder and Web3-focused software engineer with five years of professional experience building scalable backend systems and blockchain tooling. He spent four years at OP Labs as a Senior Engineer driving growth and contributed backend Solidity work to Optimism—one of the leading Ethereum scaling projects—implementing faucet/authentication features and periphery contract deployments. Prior to Web3, he progressed through engineering roles at Salesforce and Symantec, combining enterprise-grade software practices with startup velocity. A UC Berkeley CS graduate, Tarun blends smart contract development with product-minded engineering and is currently leading a stealth startup out of the United States. An under-the-radar strength is his ability to move between low-level on-chain contract requirements and higher-level growth engineering to deliver production-ready integrations.
