Matheus Cardoso
Systems engineer. I build HFT systems, modify validator clients, and tune bare-metal infrastructure for latency-sensitive workloads. Currently at Staking Facilities, working across multiple L1 networks in Rust and C.
Before that: off-chain transaction scheduling at Raiku (60k+ TPS Solana node), zkVM internals and GPU proving at RISC Zero, and bioinformatics research at the University of Brasilia.
Based in São Paulo.
