Bio
Niko Houllis.
Operator.
Systems architect who went from saving Pratt & Whitney $20M in aerospace to building $50K/hour gaming platforms on blockchain — now architecting digital presence systems for the music industry.
Niko Houllis — known online as uNEEK — is a systems architect, company founder, and self-taught full-stack developer. The arc runs from blue-collar warehouse work at 15, through a five-year Ocean & Mechanical Engineering degree at FAU, through five years at Pratt & Whitney as an aerospace engineer, through a complete pivot into the Solana ecosystem in 2019, into running a multi-jurisdictional gaming company, and into the present operating base: end-to-end systems for the music and entertainment industry.
At Pratt & Whitney he reached Senior Engineer at the five-year minimum mark. The headline build is the first working slip-ring system P&W had designed in two decades — a ground-up rebuild that saved a $20M demonstrator. The wall behind the desk holds seven Belcan Eagle Awards and the Presidential Education Award (2009).
In 2019, the pivot. He entered the Solana ecosystem knowing zero people and grew ChillChat from zero to 30K+ followers. He became 1 of 100 original Dead King Society members. He founded Savage Studio — Savage Studio S.R.L. (Costa Rica operations) and Savage Studio Holdings Inc. (Delaware IP-holder). He shipped GOALPOST.GG (a PvP card-wagering platform that ran $50K/hour handle in closed beta), DRUIDAO (a 555-supply NFT collection that generated $90K+ in pre-launch sales), and a modular NPM package suite for Web3 gaming infrastructure.
Today the lane is THE ARCHITECT: full-stack platforms shipped by one operator. Real auth, real payments, real database — not mockups. The flagship build is DEEP PRODUCTIONS, a studio-management platform for a 7x-platinum producer that scored 99/100 Real Experience on Vercel Speed Insights on the first deploy. Adjacent properties — SAVAGESTUD.IO, PRINT3D.NOW, THEBAYLENS.COM, LIXR.ONE — round out the portfolio.
Tampa, FL. Ships worldwide. One operator. Full pipeline. No agency overhead.
