Summary
Tom Brooks is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience blending physics, machine learning and cryptography to build production software aimed at accelerating the global transition to net zero. He holds a PhD in elementary particle physics and cut his teeth designing reconstruction algorithms and managing over 150 releases for a large particle physics experiment, giving him deep expertise in CI/CD, version control and complex data pipelines. Tom has applied that background to confidential computing, blockchain and climate tech at companies like Applied Blockchain and Emitwise, and now contributes at Mytos. He enjoys tackling unsolved problems across climate tech, biotech and ML, bringing a researcher's rigor to product engineering. Based in London, he pairs strong statistical intuition with hands-on systems design to turn scientific ideas into reliable, deployable software.
