Brik — RWA Aggregation Platform

Brik — RWA Aggregation Platform
Brik is a real-world asset (RWA) aggregation platform that brings verified assets into a single place, allowing users to discover, trade, and swap RWAs with crypto tokens. I worked as part of the founding engineering team, building the product from scratch.

The Problem
The RWA ecosystem is fragmented across multiple platforms with inconsistent data, UX, and trust guarantees. Users struggled to discover quality assets and understand how to interact with them safely.
Designing a flexible data model for different types of RWAs
Handling complex asset relationships and metadata
Keeping the system extensible as new asset types are added
Balancing performance with on-chain interactions
The Approach
We focused on building a clean, modular system that could evolve with the market. The goal was to keep the product understandable for users while maintaining strong internal structure.
Built frontend and backend from scratch with a shared data model
Designed APIs to support discovery, trading, and swapping flows
Focused on predictable system behavior over clever abstractions
Kept the architecture flexible for future integrations
The Impact
Modular
Architecture
easy to extend with new assets
Multi-RWA
System Scope
supports multiple asset types
High
Team Velocity
clear boundaries enabled faster iteration
