Mohammed Niyaf

Fullstack Engineer & Web3 Developer

I'm a full-stack engineer who spends a disproportionate amount of time asking, "but how does this actually work?" and then following that question until I have a real answer.

Most engineers stop at the API boundary. I tend to keep going. That usually means digging into networking, databases, distributed systems, authentication, infrastructure, security, and blockchain systems—not just using them, but understanding the decisions and trade-offs behind them.

Rather than collecting frameworks and tools, I'm more interested in understanding why they exist in the first place and the problems they're trying to solve.

Lately I've been exploring Web3 infrastructure, Solana, Rust, cryptography, wallet architecture, key management, and transaction signing. More often than not, a small question turns into a deep technical rabbit hole.

I'm always building, experimenting, and learning. If you're interested in systems, infrastructure, security, blockchain, or difficult engineering problems, we'll probably get along.

I'm open to new roles, collaborations, and opportunities. Feel free to reach out at mohammedniyafsm@gmail.com.

If you're here, chances are I'd enjoy talking to you — I get nerd-sniped easily, and a message about something that recently fascinated you would honestly make my day.
