Who am I?

Hey there, I’m Shatabarto Bhattacharya, but most folks just call me “Rik”.

You will find me digging through things related to open source contributions, blockchain, deep learning, finance (especially derivative markets in decentralized finance) and anything that involves maths or physics.

An aspiring musician and a self proclaimed music connoisseur, listening to anything from the soothing rhythms of Bossa Nova to the unique melodies of Tuvan throat singing. Checkout my listenbrainz profile to see what I have been listening to lately!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How should I contact you? Or schedule a meeting with you?

    Feel free to contact me on twitter or my email rik61072 [at] gmail [dot] com. I am always down for a chat! Please don’t mind if I happen to reply late, as it is hard for me to juggle college, work, projects and life :)

  • Are you down for gigs and consultancy work?

    Yes! In fact I can help you with these:

    • I’m available for smart contract auditing gigs and bring hands-on experience from projects at Timeswap Labs, open-source contributions and llamarisk (curveDAO). I specialize in boosting code coverage through fuzz and invariant tests, assisting in internal security audits, conducting formal verification of your smart contracts against your whitepaper and preparing codebases for large security audits. My passion, dedication, and practical expertise make me an asset in ensuring the security and reliability of your blockchain projects.

    • I can also help you with writing ETL pipelines to consume on-chain data in your backend. I will help you write fault tolerant services that will consume and index on-chain events, and can help you set up infrastructure around that.

    Let’s collaborate to strengthen your ventures.

  • Why this theme? Are you trying to have a stereotypical minimalistic techbro website?

    This theme is a homage to my journey through tech. I first started tinkering with coding when I was in 8th grade, but delved deeper into it in high school thanks to strangers I befriended from imageboards. Even my first website with an active user base was an imageboard itself. Moreover, a small community formed around the website, which is why imageboards hold a very special place in my heart. And this theme is based on popular imageboard theme “Futaba”.
