Engineers the proof pipeline, from signing to public verification.
Before Shield
Thomas built backend infrastructure for verification pipelines whose outputs have to hold up under regulatory and legal scrutiny.
At Shield
- Owns the pipeline that signs with C2PA Content Credentials, embeds the Adobe TrustMark watermark and computes the perceptual fingerprint.
- Maintains the public verification endpoint that anyone can query without an account.
- Wrote the anchoring contracts that will record every certificate on a public, append-only ledger with version 1.
Every claim Shield makes has to be verifiable by anyone, without our cooperation.
