Summary
Yu Pan is a blockchain security engineer with nine years of hands-on experience, currently protecting smart contracts and crypto infrastructure at CertiK. Pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Utah after earning a BE in Software Engineering from Nanjing University, he blends rigorous research instincts with practical engineering. He focuses on threat modeling, formal verification-adjacent techniques, and secure-by-design development for distributed ledgers. Based in Salt Lake City, Yu brings an apprentice’s curiosity—equally invested in elegant code, reproducible experiments, and a balanced life with cats. Colleagues value his methodical approach to hard-to-reproduce vulnerabilities and his habit of turning complex proofs-of-concept into auditable remediation.
