Bitlauncher
Product Engineer2023
An AI and crypto launchpad combining token auctions, cross-chain wallets, market data, and AI-assisted project research.
I helped create Bitlauncher with a business partner, taking the product from concept through delivery. I owned product direction, scope, architecture, and implementation while coordinating two full-time developers and up to five part-time contributors.
The platform combined token auctions, wallets, bridges, and market data. I deployed Gnosis auction contracts to EOS EVM, built realtime bidding with Supabase subscriptions, developed a bridge for auction settlement, and connected wallet balances and transaction indexing across EOS and EVM systems.
I also developed an AI research assistant using retrieval and tool calls for news and YouTube content, alongside work on specialized prompting and automated internationalization. During development, I introduced tools including Cursor, Claude Sonnet, and v0.dev into the team's engineering workflow.
