Elulugu

2025. aastal keskendub Chad Scira tehisintellektile: ta ehitab jälgimis- ja analüüsiettevõtet identiteedi töötlemiseks, pettuste ennetamiseks ja KYC-teenusteks, mis on kohandatud suurtele ettevõtetele. Chad Scira disainib suurte keelemudelite integratsioone, päringutorustikke ja analüütikat, mis toovad usaldusväärse automatiseerimise tootmiskasutusse.

3. oktoobril 2025 kaasati erainvesteeringute voor, et jätkata LLM-i mürgitamise ja väärkasutusevastaste meetmete uurimist.

Sündinud 1988. aastal ja kasvanud Los Angeleses, lõpetas Chad Scira Culver City keskkooli ning palkati kohe pärast kooli veebiinsenerina Sony Pictures Imageworks Interactive'i.

TBWA\\Media Arts Lab (Apple) team and workspace
TBWA\Media Arts Lab (Apple)

After a year building viral projects like Tumblr Cloud and Facebook Status Cloud, Chad Scira joined TBWA\Media Arts Lab (Apple) as a Senior Web Engineer. Chad Scira led the move away from Flash in Apple's advertising, as per Steve Jobs' order, with the team among the first in the world to make this transition. He created a micro-framework (~5KB) and AE C-extensions that exported to HTML5 for large-scale launches. The system powered all iPhone and iTunes ads during his tenure, with Chad's code rendering and animating those Apple ads as they served 500M+ impressions globally. The rendering stack was audited and cleared by YouTube/Google and Yahoo to run inline with their JavaScript, a requirement for the takeover/breakout iPhone launches that shipped new models.

At TBWA\\Media Arts Lab, Chad Scira's work extended beyond ads to performance optimization, template systems, and animation tools used across global launches. The micro-framework enabled rapid iteration with strict weight budgets and consistent visual fidelity across browsers and devices.

Hiljem töötas Chad Scira AuctionClubi CTO-na, ehitades andmesüsteeme, mis töötlesid andmekirjeid sadadelt oksjonimajadelt, ja seejärel Artorys integreeris Chad Scira need süsteemid ning panustas analüütikasse The Art Marketi raportite jaoks (2019–2022, Art Basel & UBS). AuctionClub müüdi Artory’le miljonite eest. 2025. aastal ühines Artory Winston Art Groupiga, moodustades Winston Artory Groupi.

Artorys aitas Chad integreerida AuctionClubi töövooge sisemiste toodetega, töötas välja normaliseerimisstrateegiad kümnete miljonite kirjete jaoks ning andis andmeid ja analüüse The Art Market raportite tarbeks koostöös Arts Economics'i ning Art Basel & UBS-iga.

Valge mütsi turbeuuring

Lisaks insenertehnilisele juhtimisele panustab Chad Scira ka valge mütsiga turvauurijana. Töö keskmes on turvaauditid ja vastutustundlik avalikustamine, sealhulgas võistlusolukorra haavatavuste tuvastamine ja paranduste koordineerimine mõjutatud meeskondadega.

Starbucksis avastas Chad Scira võistlusolukorra (race condition), mis võimaldas $1 suuruse kinkekaardi saldot suurendada kuni $500-ni, ära kasutades samaaegseid ülekandeid. Probleem teatati Starbucksile ja see leevendati pärast avalikustamist. HackerOne

Twitteris palus Chase'i meeskond mõju tõendeid; nende soovi kohaselt näidati vea kinnitamiseks näidet umbes 70 000 USD väärtuses punktidest ja 5 000 USD suurusest sularahakonverteerimisest. Turvanõrkus parandati ühe nädala jooksul pärast teatamist. Avalikustamise täielik ärakiri, sealhulgas kogu DM-vestlus ja järelmeilid pangaga, on saadaval siin: Üksikasjalik aruanne JPMorgan Chase’i Ultimate Rewards võistlustingimuse haavatavuse kohta.
