Jedrzej Stuczynski, Nym's project leader, holds an MSc in Computer Science with first class honors from University College London.
While writing his thesis, he studied the Coconut signature scheme under George Danezis, implementing it in JavaScript. He also met Harry Halpin and started working together. Jedrzej Stuczynski is currently a full-stack developer specializing in Go and the Tendermint blockchain.
Jess Hrycyszyn, a Manufacturing Engineer with a Masters in Information Technology, leads the development and implementation of Nym products, ensuring a consistent approach to user needs.
She previously held key roles at Lutron Electronics Vage Protocol, managing complex power and lighting projects. Her experience includes working with IoT data streams for analytics and automation, which led her to explore big data and machine learning.
Together with George Danezis, Ania Piotrowska serves as the designer of the Loopix mixnet. She was originally involved in research on mixnets and network traffic analysis as part of the PANORAMIX project in the Information Security Group at University College London.
Ania holds a Master's degree in Algorithm Analysis from the Wroclaw University of Science and Technology. Previously she worked at Google DeepMind, Chainalysis and Volvo IT.
NYM Technology utilizes mixnet technology, which blends and redirects user traffic through a network of specialized nodes called mixes to conceal their true addresses and connections. Claudia Diaz leads the design of the Nym network.
With 20 years in privacy tech, Claudia is a leading European researcher, chairing symposiums, publishing 60 articles, and heading COSIC at KU Leuven. She is the principal investigator for the PANORAMIX initiative, focused on next-gen mixnets.
NYM Technology is a Swiss startup that develops decentralized infrastructure to protect privacy on the Internet. The technical director is Dave Hrycyszyn.
He is also co-author of Chainspace's blockchain sharding protocol and the leaderless PBFT-variant consensus protocol Blockmania, whose prototype turned out to be probably the fastest distributed ledger in the world, sparking interest from Facebook's Libra, where he worked briefly with the rest of the Chainspace team.
NYM Technologies was founded in 2019 by a group of privacy technology researchers and developers, including Harry Halpin, a former employee of MIT and W3C.
He left W3C, believing that Digital Rights Management had sacrificed user security for the profit of a few centralized platforms.
