Background

I am a principal lead at CIDT (https://consideritdone.tech) and our team is a Polywrap DAO Contributor. We are very proud of our past and ongoing contributions, including Polywrap DAO Hub (https://github.com/polywrap/hub).

I have experience building and scaling technology organizations, and management of the Software Development Lyfe Cycle (SDLC) including product design, development, quality assurance, compliance, security, distribution and support. My past and present projects include CTO role at Explorer Surgical Corp. (https://www.explorersurgical.com/company), leadership role at CIDT, technical leadership contributions to Certified NFT (https://www.certifiednft.io), Nodle Block Explorer (https://explorer.nodle.com), to name a few.

Overview

I’m proposing to contributed in the following areas:

Technical Standards & Specification: Understand and clearly document the technical details that make-up the "Polywrap Standard" into a coherent specification. Create processes for updating various inter-connected standards. Define sane versioning schemes for its various pieces, allowing for as much forward-backward compatibility as possible into the future.

"Technical Council" Facilitation: Help facilitate the "Technical Council", a core-development forum where new standards & features can be discussed and debated. This may take the form of text-based communications or calls, all with the goal of extracting as many key developer opinions as possible to ensure we're making well researched and thoughtful decisions.

Proposal Justification

It's necessary to further Polywrap DAO's mission in becoming a technical standards body. The long-term goals of this effort would be to help make the:

• Polywrap DAO as reliable as other high profile technical organizations such as CloudFlare, Amazon, or Google.
• Polywrap standard / toolchain as “firm” a building block as other prevelant technical standards such as HTTP, Linux, or Chromium.
