Since November 2007 Thomas has been an Associate Professor at the Victoria University of Wellington. Before that he was an Assistant Professor at the Technische Universität Darmstadt, an Acting Professor at the Software Engineering Department of the University of Mannheim and the Technische Universität Darmstadt, a researcher at the University of Kaiserslautern and a Lecturer in Computing at Staffordshire University.

He is an editor for the Springer journal Software and Systems Modeling from which he received a ten year most influential regular paper award. He also received two ACM SIGSOFT distinguished paper awards. Thomas was a PC Co-Chair for MODELS 2023, the general chair for MODELS 2011, organised the inaugural SoSyM Theme Issues on Metamodeling, and Multi-Level Modeling, and co-organised Dagstuhl Seminar 17492 "Multi-Level Modelling". He is a steering committee member of the MULTI workshops series that celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2023.

Research Interests

Thomas' research interests include (multi-level- / meta-) modelling, and model-driven development.

Edutainment

Thomas was inspired to a brief science-fiction mystery when he was thinking about metalevels for one of his courses. He came up with the "No Shortcuts" paradox when strolling through the streets of Darmstadt, Germany.
