Scouting report

Aurora/NEAR blockchain contributor โ€” 387 PRs merged

assessed from open-source footprint

Principal
73signal

Diego's real signal is contribution impact: 387 merged PRs and sustained work inside the aurora-is-near org (12 commits to is-banned-near-address, 9 to pauser-sdk, 7 to a Backstage blockchain plugin), plus 13 deployed projects. His own repos โ€” a Neovim package manager and a Solana lottery protocol โ€” are small-star and heavily abandoned (83%), so the value is proven team contribution on real Web3 infra rather than personal flagships. A strong fit for blockchain/platform engineering teams.
