Rob Fitzpatrick is a cryptographer and engineering leader with a decade of experience helping organisations solve practical key management and advanced cryptography challenges. Based in Cambridge and with a PhD in computer security from Royal Holloway, he has translated cutting-edge research—quantum-resistant crypto, threshold schemes, MPC, SGX and searchable encryption—into deployable products across defence, cloud security and commercial clients. He has led cryptography teams and headed InfoSec at startups and established vendors, and now consults independently while engineering at i2km and Thales Cloud Security. Known for bridging rigorous maths (first-class BSc in Mathematics) with pragmatic implementation, he focuses on making auditable, operationally sound cryptographic systems rather than theoretical prototypes. An uncommon strength is his track record moving research proofs into production-ready key management and secure-communication tooling.
