# Dhaiwat Pandya (dhai.eth / Dhai) - 24 yo. - Born and brought up in šŸ‡®šŸ‡³ but have since traveled to ~21 countries. - Been writing code professionally for 7 years now. - In crypto since 2020. #### I love being able to do research, engineer prototypes and tooling, do evangelism around it, and help drive public conversations around this work. Here are my work experiences and other details: ## Engineering, Research & Evangelism, Fuel Labs (Nov 2022 - Jan 2025) I initially joined Fuel as an engineer to work on tooling. I did that solely for 2 years. After the Fuel Mainnet launch, I pivoted to a hybrid role where I was now focusing on doing market & technical research, engineering various prototypes, and driving evangelism for Fuel publicly. ### My best work at Fuel: - Created `npm create fuels` - allowing devs to build and deploy Fuel dApps in less than 2 mins. ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 02.40.28](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H17JPYzbge.png) - Worked on optimisations to make transactions 2x faster for all Fuel devs and users. ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 02.43.46](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/S1R3DKfble.png) - Created the Fuel AI Agent Kit and other AI community integrations for Fuel. ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.17.15](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/SymuJqzbgg.png) - Created 'Home Verifiability Score' to showcase Fuel's home verifiability strengths. This project is now a public good for the wider Ethereum community.

This included prototyping aps regularly using Fuel tooling, researching SDKs from other projects, talking to devs, leading engineering efforts around incorporating these insights into our tooling. Too many to name. - I spearheaded a lot of technical evangelism for Fuel once I pivoted away from my engg role at Fuel. My goal with my evangelism work was to present Fuel's tech in a friendly yet assertive manner - and to make sure that Fuel is involved in important conversations around Ethereum scaling solutions in crypto communities. ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.31.08](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/r1PhM9zWxe.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.31.37](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryMAz5zbxe.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.31.54](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rJr17cz-eg.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.32.40](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/SymGQczZeg.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.32.54](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/SkG77qMZxg.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.33.16](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HJrNmqzWeg.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.33.32](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HJErQ5fWex.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.33.46](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Sy-UXqG-ex.png) ![CleanShot 2025-05-15 at 03.34.08](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryvPm9fZxg.png) ___ ## Apart from Fuel, my previous work experiences in crypto are: - Developer Relations, Ankr - Founding Frontend Engineer, Mazury - Engineer, Moonshot Collective / Gitcoin DAO - Early member and contributor, Developer DAO - Before crypto, I worked as a freelance engineer with several teams around the world for ~3 years. ___ ## Other misc work ### Written Work - [A guide to web3 for web2 frontend devs](https://mirror.xyz/dhaiwat.eth/O5CK6Tjfv8uhl6FPbjT0yZ8LUwViDPWGYHdu9khRWpM): Probably one of my earliest and most read articles.
