Anthony Lau
I am a professional smart contract engineer with over 5 years of experience specializing in different sectors like DeFi and NFT. As a Smart Contract Lead in Memeland, I led the entire design on the smart contract architecture and a team of 2 senior smart contract engineers. Throughout my career, I have shipped dozens of secure and gas-efficient smart contracts from concept to production secured >$100M USD in TVL. I am deeply immersed in DeFi as I worked for Uniswap Foundation as a developer support and actively contribute to Doppler protocol which is built on top of Uniswap v4 by ex-Uniswap team. I also harnessed my leadership skills by overseeing a team of 4 engineers when I was Head of Blockchain at Metabrge. Last but not least I am equipped with a deep understanding on Bytecode/ Opcode-level EVM, Security Audit, L1 & L2 architecture and EIPs.
