Rudy Dubé.
Solutions engineer.

I work between institutional users and engineering teams—from smart-contract execution and transaction simulation through APIs, SDKs and operational tooling. At Safe, I lead technical support across the protocol stack.

01 — Technical depth

Protocol & transaction engineering.

I work directly with smart contracts and transaction execution—not only the APIs and interfaces around them. This includes simulating transactions, diagnosing contract-level failures and coordinating complex recovery paths across different networks.

01

Transaction simulation

Pre-flight simulation, calldata decoding, revert analysis and expected state changes before execution.

02

Smart-account systems

Safe contracts, signatures, thresholds, modules, guards, proxies and nested account configurations.

03

Complex recoveries

Reconstructing transaction paths, authority and contract state for sensitive recovery operations.

04

Chain-specific execution

Nonce, gas, finality and contract behaviour across different L1 and L2 environments.

02 — Selected work

Personal systems

01Rust / trading infrastructure

hl-cli

A Hyperliquid terminal built in Rust. It includes WebSocket streaming, EIP-712 signing, trailing stops, circuit breakers and an agent interface for account analysis and execution workflows.

03 — Experience

Roles across infrastructure support, institutional onboarding and technical operations.

01

Head of Support

Safe Labs · 2025 — now

Technical point of contact for institutional clients and integrating developers across Safe's API, SDK and protocol. I diagnose smart-account flows across contract and application layers, simulate proposed executions and turn recurring issues into product requirements.

02

Technical User Support Manager

Safe · 2024 — 2025

Supported more than $50M in recovery operations during the Bybit incident, tracing transaction paths and validating proposed executions across engineering, security and external teams. I also built internal diagnostic tooling and recruited a team of technical contractors.

03

Technical Support Consultant

Tokeny Solutions · 2022 — 2024

First technical hire. I owned enterprise onboarding for banks and funds across more than $100M in tokenized assets, worked directly with issuance contracts and built support automation that reduced resolution times.

04

Earlier roles

BeyondWords · Blockchain.com · 2020 — 2022

Product onboarding for an AI text-to-speech platform, followed by wallet operations, transaction tracing and fraud support at Blockchain.com.
