Owned Aethir’s RWA Capital program end-to-end, structuring two core capital frameworks — institutional credit lines and DeFi vaults — with defined APY, LTV, liquidation terms, collateral management, oracle, due diligence & risk management. Built the institutional partner network using on-chain analytics, leveraging Dune, Nansen, RWA.xyz and DefiLlama to identify high-potential protocols and capital allocators, then sourcing and onboarding partners (FalconX, Tactical Compute, GAIB, Injective, & others) that brought $160M+ in capital for GPU cashflow-backed tokenization — the most liquid RWA GPU program in the DePIN market. Built Aethir’s Merge Mining Engine, a proprietary multi-platform compute routing system that allocated idle GPUs across 73+ providers (Bittensor, io.net, Gensyn, and others) to AI inference, crypto subnet rewards, and fiat workloads reducing unused GPU inventory from 100% to 0% and generating $7M+ in compute revenue. Designed the Enterprise AI Deal Desk with a subsidy-driven pricing model, using ATH token incentives to bridge the gap between datacenter rent-out costs and client GPU rental prices across a $250M+ active pipeline. Supported the framework with 25+ financial calculators (ROI, break-even day, token consumption, incentive emissions, revenue forecasting) adopted across management, sales, marketing, finance, and BD teams. Created the datacenter fast-track onboarding process, building clear ROI and break-even day models that gave Tier 3/4 GPU datacenters immediate visibility into returns — cutting integration time by 80% and accelerating the GPU supply growth that supported Enterprise ARR scaling from $22M to $140M. Launched 7 distribution channels for Enterprise AI GPU sales by structuring capacity offtake and 1/6/12-month reserved deals with aggregator platforms (Spheron AI, GPU Trader, Shadeform, and others), originating $60M+ in pipeline — Aethir’s first aggregator-driven revenue stream. Designed ATH Token Design 2.0 and GPU cash flow model for Aethir’s $344M Digital Asset Treasury initiative (NASDAQ: AGPU); contributed to board-level presentation materials alongside Predictive Oncology and DNA Fund. Led special DeFi feasibility projects: validated the Aethir Eigenlayer pool against the cloud host reward model and token design before launch approval; explored a Morpho looping strategy where GPU cashflow-backed RWA funds could take up to 3.8x leverage into stablecoin positions with yield range of 12–15%.

Generated $4.6M in revenue across DeFi, supply chain, and protocol verticals; designed the fundraising strategy — pitch decks, financial models, and SAFT structures — that raised $1.5M by Dec 2023 for the Bitcoin-collateralized USDAO Stablecoin. Architected a $1.2B RWA real estate pipeline framework and onboarded $68M in properties for RealProton’s tokenization project, structuring ERC-3643 and ERC-4626 compliant token flows in partnership with Republic, Tokeny, and Archax. Built the protocol’s first yield-generating product Onvault — an ETH-backed crypto lending platform delivering 70% APY — leading a 20-member cross-functional team across Web3 infrastructure implementation (IPFS, Chainlink, Snapshot, PUSH). Built the deal flow evaluation engine: reviewed 80+ blockchain projects, managed RFP/RFI/RFQ processes, secured 35+ strategic partnerships, and produced investment memos, whitepapers, and pitch decks that directly supported fundraising rounds.

Generated $1.8M+ in revenue by developing GTM strategies and implementation plans for compliance-based blockchain services, leading a 50-member cross-functional team across application architecture, analytics, and end-to-end BRD/FRD documentation for solutions spanning custom exchanges, wallets, traceability systems, machine learning algorithms and DeFi platforms. Implemented a Hyperledger Fabric agriculture traceability system for the Government of Cambodia, serving 200K+ farms with compliance-grade supply chain tracking.

Generated $830K+ in consulting revenue delivering blockchain PoCs for TCS, Daimler, Airtel, Wipro, and Tech Mahindra; designed Hyperledger Fabric environments and automated CI/CD pipelines on AWS.
