Yoav Bittan is a Senior Backend Engineer with seven years of experience building production-grade backend systems and novel Web3 solutions, currently based in Austin and pursuing an MS in Computer Science at Georgia Tech with a focus on ML/AI. He has shipped end-to-end enterprise offerings at ConsenSys Mesh—combining Solidity, zk-proofs, and private zkEVM deployments—and now leads backend architecture for custom router and API platforms that bridge hardware, portals, and mobile apps. An active maintainer and code owner of the Baseline Protocol, Yoav contributes to a high-profile open-source multiparty coordination stack that applies zero-knowledge techniques to enterprise data workflows. He pairs rapid prototyping and pragmatic engineering—demonstrated by a hackathon win at EthAtlanta—with careful standards work and API design, having authored and maintained large endpoint surfaces and specification updates. Practical, detail-driven, and curious, he blends cryptography, distributed systems, and product-focused backend development to turn cutting-edge research into deployable products.
