Mobby AI: Hardening Distributed Consensus

System Software Engineer | 2025 - Present

Mobby AI is a decentralized network requiring bit-level precision in consensus.

The Challenge

The network suffered from split-brain failures due to non-deterministic floating-point math across different CPU architectures. Additionally, the storage layer panicked under load due to 'zombie' async futures.

The Solution

Architected a migration to Fixed-Point Arithmetic to guarantee determinism. Implemented a safe state overwrite mechanism for dropped futures in the async runtime loop.

The Impact

Eliminated consensus forks and recurring storage panics. Reduced memory footprint by 35% via heaptrack profiling.
