# Uddug > Senior-led engineering studio. We design and ship production systems > for blockchain, fintech, AI infrastructure, and gaming — backend > architecture, smart contracts, and the production-grade glue around > them. Uddug is a small senior team that has shipped systems for partners including Gateway.fm, Infinex, Wirex, Wilder World, Lukso, Snark.art, Polygon Miden, and others. Engagements are senior-only — no junior-staffed teams, no outsourcing, no hand-offs to subcontractors. ## What we do - **Blockchain & Web3.** dApps, DeFi protocols, marketplaces; wallet flows, on-chain logic, cross-chain integrations on EVM, L2s, and appchains. - **Tokenized finance & payments.** Payment infrastructure and settlement, asset tokenization, compliance-aware architecture, high-load transaction processing. - **AI infrastructure.** Inference and model-serving infrastructure, API orchestration, data pipelines, scalable AI-product backends. - **Provably-fair gaming.** Certified randomness, instant crypto payouts, real-time backends, regulated-environment compliance. ## Service formats - **Architecture Sprint** (~2 weeks): architecture defined, risks mapped, execution-ready plan delivered. - **CTO as a Service** (ongoing): senior tech leadership without the full-time hire — architecture decisions, delivery management, product alignment. - **Security & Architecture Review** (1–2 weeks): independent audit of system design, codebase, security posture, and production readiness. - **Build & Delivery** (project-based): full-cycle development from architecture through launch. Senior-only, milestone-driven. ## Team Founders: - **Mike Manko** — CEO.
