Ava Labs engineering head Patrick O'Grady leaving team to start own company

Ava Labs engineering head Patrick O'Grady leaving team to start own company

The VP of Engineering for Ava Labs, which oversees the Avalanche blockchain development, is leaving to start a new venture after 3.5 years at the company.Patrick O’Grady will remain as a technical advisor for Ava Labs and has shared few details about the new venture.

Ava Labs' Patrick O'Grady, VP of Engineering at the Avalanche AVAX -2.38% blockchain developer, will soon leave the company to start his own venture, O'Grady announced on X. 

O'Grady was recently involved with developing the Vryx scaling solution that Ava Labs hopes will allow the Avalanche blockchain to scale to 100,000 transactions per second , a metric that modern blockchains including Monad , MegaETH , and TON , among others, also hope to achieve. 

O'Grady, who announced he'll remain as a Technical Advisor to Ava Labs, shared scant few details about the new venture, but teased an area of focus in a direct message with The Block. 

"Application developers should be well-equipped with open and performant frameworks that can supercharge any onchain experience with unique combinations of things like networking, storage, and consensus," O'Grady wrote. "The most popular applications on the web today are unrelenting in their quest for differentiated performance and efficiency (as a means to deliver more value to their users). I am confident that the most popular applications of the onchain age will get ahead by doing the same." 

"I look forward to continuing to contribute to an internet we can all believe in. I’ll see you onchain," O'Grady wrote to close his announcement.
