Hi, I'm Hunter.

I'm a full-stack engineer building on Solana — mobile apps, on-chain games, and USDC payments. Mostly solo, out of Anchorage.

What I've Built

Solana mobile, on-chain games, and payments — solo builds and a client app, with honest status on each.

Work History

[01]

anonmesh

2026

Engineer · wallet & payments

  • One of two core engineers on anonmesh's React Native / Expo mobile app — a serverless, non-custodial encrypted mesh messenger with Solana payments. Built the Solana wallet + payments side.
  • Built the wallet and send/receive experience: live devnet balances, SPL token activity, QR + Solana Pay scanning, on-chain confirmation and failure states, and address-poisoning guards.
  • Built the shared UI design-system primitives (bottom sheets, toasts, tokens) and crash-only Sentry observability with PII scrubbing; hardened onboarding and key-safety flows.
[02]

The Monolith

2026

Solo Developer

  • Built a mobile 3D DeFi game on Solana where players stake USDC to claim and maintain blocks in a shared tower — r/Place meets DeFi, in 3D.
  • Engineered a custom GLSL block shader and InstancedMesh rendering (650 blocks in 3 draw calls), targeting 60 FPS on mobile.
  • Wrote the Anchor (Rust) USDC staking vault and a Colyseus real-time game server; integrated Tapestry, MagicBlock SOAR, and Solana Blinks.
  • Tested across the mobile app, game server, and on-chain program. Solana devnet beta.
[03]

Seeker Eats

Dec 2025 - Feb 2026

Developer

  • Built a USDC-based food delivery app for the Solana Mobile ecosystem with DoorDash Drive integration.
  • Implemented Privy wallet authentication and USDC payments with crypto-to-fiat conversion for merchant compatibility.
  • Integrated Twilio VoIP APIs for platform-to-restaurant communication.
[04]

Pls Give

Jan – Dec 2025

Solo Developer

  • Built a Solana-based 3D multiplayer browser game; wallet login, real-time multiplayer backend, and on-chain donations.
  • Implemented backend services (Node.js, Cloudflare Workers, PostgreSQL) for persistence.
  • Designed wallet-based donation logic focusing on transaction handling, validation, and security.

// About

Who I Am

Bio

CS at UAA. Spent the last two years building products on Solana instead of just studying them — a 3D DeFi game with custom GLSL shaders, a multiplayer donation game that won me a trip to Solana Breakpoint, a crypto food-delivery app that placed at the Midwest Blockchain Conference, and a senior-capstone habit tracker with on-chain stakes.

Most recently I built the Solana wallet + payments side of anonmesh, a mobile mesh messenger — one of two core engineers, shipping send/receive, on-chain confirmation, and key-safety flows.

I care about the whole thing — the architecture, the UX, the tests, the deploy. If it ships, my name's on it.

From 3D rendering pipelines to on-chain smart contracts — I've built across Solana mobile, games, and payments, mostly solo. Open to flexible, contract, or future-dated work.
