Working with Decebal has been a truly rewarding experience. He is one of the most dependable and reliable people I've had the pleasure of collaborating with, always delivering exceptional work, no matter how complex the challenge. His technical expertise is impressive, and his ability to navigate and solve problems quickly is a testament to his skill. What really sets Decebal apart, though, is how he consistently goes above and beyond for the team. He's not just focused on getting the job done - he deeply cares about the success of the company and the people he works with, always offering support and guidance to ensure we're all growing together. I feel fortunate to have worked with such a dedicated and thoughtful leader.

I had the privilege of working with Decebal in a part-time capacity and his impact was immediate. He combined strong technical skill with clear communication and thoughtful problem-solving that led to better developer partnership relations. His methodical approach was very appealing to my operational background and he consistently met deadlines assigned without complaint.
What impressed me most was how he delivered consistent, high-quality work despite a limited schedule. He managed time well, set clear expectations, and contributed at the level of a full-time teammate. Beyond the code, Decebal brought humility and professionalism (something very rare in tech/blockchain) listening first, giving thoughtful feedback, and raising the standard of collaboration across the team.
Simply put? He made difficult tasks manageable and elevated the people around them. I would gladly work with Decebal again and highly recommend them for any team.

Dez excels at mapping out a birds-eye view of a technical solution and then working with individual team members to flesh out that solution. With his simultaneous interests in best practices and cutting-edge technology, Dez always encouraged us to look for the best tool for each job. Accordingly, I'm confident Decebal will excel at any firm looking to bring experience, technical confidence, and stability to its engineering team.
