I'm Caroline Nyakio Maina, a Rust-first blockchain and systems engineer. I've shipped Cartesi coprocessors, byte-for-byte deterministic RISC-V build pipelines, and Bitcoin-native payment services. I write production code, and I cofounded Directionally.
Somewhere along the way I realized the hardest part of this space isn't writing the code. It's that so few people can explain it. So I started making technical explainers, ZK learning notes, and videos, teaching the exact systems I build. That's 12+ workshops and technical trainings so far, and 200+ developers reached.
That combination is what I do best: sitting between deep technical work and the developers trying to understand it.
I'm looking for a role building in Rust and blockchain, doing Developer Relations, or both. Email me at carolinenyakio21@gmail.com, or find me on GitHub, X, and YouTube.
