Igor Braga

Hey there! I'm Igor, a lead software engineer with over six years of software development expertise (mostly Rust, c and C++) and three years specializing in blockchain and zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technologies. I hold a Master’s in Computer Science from the University of Waterloo and have dedicated my career to building resilient systems and breaking down complex concepts to help others succeed in their programming journeys. Whether it's diving deep into blockchain applications or leveraging Rust for high-performance solutions, I’m here to share my insights and passion for problem-solving. My background spans system design, compilers, and low-level programming, where I've honed the skills to optimize performance and streamline complex processes. Mentoring is a true passion for me—I enjoy guiding others, learning through the process, and seeing mentees progress on their unique paths. There’s nothing more rewarding than being part of their journey and helping them achieve their goals. When I'm not mentoring or programming, you’ll find me experimenting with new baking recipes or perfecting my serve on the tennis court. Let’s connect, learn, and maybe swap a recipe or two along the way!
