About Quentin Nivelais

Systems engineer, CTO at Frak Labs

I build production systems end to end: smart wallets, self-hosted infrastructure, embedded firmware, and the tooling around them.

The substrates change, the job does not: smart contracts and account abstraction wallets, self-hosted Kubernetes, bare-metal Rust firmware, Android apps, and the tooling that keeps them shippable. Everything here is written from a system that runs, not from a tutorial.
