Contract architecture
Design token, vault, or workflow contracts with explicit state transitions and invariants, favoring audited libraries over custom cryptographic or access-control primitives.
Smart Contract Development
Contracts that hold assets should be tested like they do.
Solidity and EVM smart contract development with explicit access control, upgrade paths, and a testing process built for code that can't be quietly patched after deployment.
Book a discovery callTHE BUSINESS NEED
Start with the problem.
Build what matters.
A smart contract that controls funds or permissions has a different failure mode than a web application bug — a mistake can be immediately and permanently exploitable. Development needs to treat access control, upgrade paths, and edge cases as first-class requirements from the first draft, not issues to patch after a warning sign appears.
How we approach it
We define roles, privileged functions, and failure scenarios before writing contract logic — who can mint, pause, upgrade, or drain funds, and under what condition. Contracts are built with OpenZeppelin's audited primitives where they fit, tested against both expected and adversarial inputs with Hardhat, and delivered with a clear statement of what has and hasn't been independently audited.
CAPABILITY IN DETAIL
What this means in practice.
Specific engineering work, connected to a business need.
Access control and upgrade paths
Implement role-based permissions, multisig or timelock controls for sensitive functions, and a considered choice between immutable and upgradeable contract patterns.
Testing and static analysis
Build Hardhat test suites covering normal flows, boundary conditions, and known attack patterns such as reentrancy and integer edge cases, backed by static analysis tooling.
Deployment and verification
Script reproducible deployments, verify source on the relevant block explorer, and document the deployed addresses, roles, and administrative keys for operational handover.
WHERE IT CAN HELP
Problems worth solving.
Illustrative engagement types, not claims about previous projects.
- A token or vault contract that needs defensible access control before mainnet deployment
- Adding upgrade or pause capability to a contract without weakening its security guarantees
- A pre-audit development pass that gives an external auditor a smaller, better-documented surface to review
BEFORE WE BEGIN
Questions, answered.
Do you provide a formal security audit?
Development includes our own testing and static analysis, but an independent third-party audit is a separate, specialized engagement we recommend before any contract holding significant value goes live — and we can prepare the codebase to make that audit more effective.
Should our contract be upgradeable?
Not by default. Upgradeability adds a centralization and complexity cost that needs to be justified against the risk it's solving. We discuss the trade-off explicitly rather than defaulting to a proxy pattern.
Which chains do you build for?
Primarily Ethereum and other EVM-compatible chains. If a project needs a non-EVM environment such as Cosmos SDK, that's a distinct engagement with different tooling.
