Core backend engineer behind a live stablecoin payments network on Base since Mar 2025: the services, keepers, pricing, infra and automation that keep everyday USDC payments settling.
About Me
Backend and smart-contract engineer, 3+ years in blockchain. Since Mar 2025 I’ve been a core engineer at a VC-backed stablecoin payments network on Base, live in 15+ markets, that lets people pay and get paid in USDC every day. I own its pricing (Chainlink CRE, prices on-chain every minute), the keeper service, the payment-proof service, the alerting pipeline, the support AI and much of the infrastructure they run on, and I’m one of the core Solidity engineers on its contracts: matching, disputes, limits, pricing and insurance.
I sit closest to production: when a payment stalls or an event goes missing, I trace it on-chain to the root cause and ship the fix.
Before that I wrote Solidity for the Knowledge Protocol at GetBoarded and an ERC-20 checkout gateway at Hooman Digital, and won prizes at ETHGlobal, PermaHacks and Base hackathons.

You can find me on X and LinkedIn, and I’m best reached by email at 0xmujahid@gmail.com.

Education & Community
Buy me a coffee
If something I built or wrote helped you, you can send a few USDT. The checkout is Sitebound: this page holds no wallet address, and the wallet that gets paid is registered on-chain for 0xmujahid.xyz, so a hacked page cannot redirect the money.

Test network: these payments use Whitechain Sepolia test USDT, which has no real value.
