Principal engineer shipping onchain products across EVM and Solana — lotteries, NFT platforms, gaming tournaments. Eight years of getting smart contracts, frontends, and the gnarly bits in between to behave.
I’m Ashish Mittal — a principal software engineer based in Mumbai, working on the production end of web3. I’ve spent the last eight years turning whiteboard ideas into shipped products: DApps smart contracts trading systems NFT platforms.
I was a founding engineer on AuraNFT, scaled it to host ~250 gaming projects, and helped re-architect it through a full rebrand to Gamp. Before that I led a 10,000-NFT drop on Ethereum with 99.99% uptime, coded a zero-knowledge voting DAO, and shipped consumer features at Justdial’s 140M-user e-commerce platform.
Most recently I shipped Earnmax at Mode Mobile — an onchain lottery using Chainlink VRF that processed hundreds of thousands of monthly tickets. I like systems that have to be both fair and fast.
When I’m not deploying contracts, I’m probably losing at chess, refactoring my dotfiles, or arguing about gas optimisations on X.
A small selection. Most of these have moved real money or run live in production for real users. Hover the cards.
A provably-fair lottery that sells entry tickets and elects winners using Chainlink VRF. Smart contracts hold rulesets for a variety of pools; a quest system layers on top for partner social campaigns across X, Discord and Telegram. Ships hundreds of thousands of tickets per draw.
Built a decentralised gaming platform from scratch as founding engineer; scaled it to host ~250 games. Led the rebrand to Gamp with a tournaments vertical for chess, Dota and Supercell titles, plus a custom wallet connector that scales across EVM + Solana.
Designed and shipped a 10,000-NFT collection on Ethereum for an investment firm empowering women globally. 99.99% uptime, zero breaches. Also coded a zero-knowledge DApp for community DAO voting — fair, secret, fast.
E-commerce on Next.js for India's largest local-search platform. New checkout flows, payment-gateway integration, and the kind of edge cases you only see at very large scale (100k paid B2B clients).
Two years of enterprise grind: React frontends, Azure B2C identity, API integrations, unit + load testing. Revamped the UI of a high-volume progressive webapp and learned that good design is half the battle in user retention. The fundamentals that everything else stands on.
I take on a small number of contracts a year and I’m always up for chats about onchain products, smart-contract architecture, or just a good token-design rabbit hole. The fastest way is email.
