SC. 02 — Prologue

For over a decade I have built the parts people never see — the backends, the ledgers, the quiet machinery that keeps money moving and apps awake at 3 a.m.

I architect Go and gRPC microservices, write smart contracts and DeFi protocols, and ship web, desktop and mobile apps that hold up under real load. My work sits on the seam between Web2 and Web3: traditional systems that talk fluently to blockchains.

Somewhere along the way I started teaching. Today I run withsilasogar, a training ground for the skills people pay for — and I still write code every day.

Work with me

Bring me
the hard parts.

  1. 01 Architecture Design the system before it is built: backends, data, protocols and the seams between Web2 and Web3. Go · gRPC · Distributed systems
  2. 02 Build Lead or join the team that ships it — web, mobile, payments and smart contracts, built to hold up under real load. Flutter · Next.js · Solidity
  3. 03 Advisory A second pair of eyes on your architecture, contracts and scaling plans before they become expensive. Reviews · Roadmaps · Hiring
  4. 04 Training Hands-on workshops for teams: Go, Python, Flutter and prompt engineering, taught by someone who ships with them. Workshops · Talks · Courses

Craft

Four disciplines.
One habit: ship.

I

Blockchain

Smart contracts, DeFi protocols, real-world asset tokenisation and wallet services across EVM chains and Solana.

II

Systems

Go and gRPC microservices, distributed systems and high-availability infrastructure on AWS and GCP.

III

Fintech

Payments, cross-border remittance, POS and stablecoin integrations — money in integer units, settled exactly.

IV

Apps

Flutter on mobile, Next.js on the web. Products that stay fast, secure and simple to use.

Tools of the trade
LanguagesGo, Python, Dart, TypeScript, Solidity, C++, Java
FrameworksFlutter, Next.js, React, Gin, Fiber
ChainsEthereum, Base, Linea, Solana, LayerZero
DataPostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis
InfraDocker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, AWS, GCP

The classroom

I teach what I build.

Go, Python, Flutter and prompt engineering — taught on camera, from a desk that looks a lot like this one.
