Questions of Specificity

These answers you may come to know by way of the writings and posts and fotos.

Corporate Taglines

Eva Winterschön is a systems architect specializing in cache-centric storage, virtualization, and bare-metal clustering. Her quarter century long career has spanned several engineering specializations, culminating in a sustained focus on roles in systems architecture.

The Now, und Jetzt

Presently, Eva focuses her cognitive output on the design and implementation of advanced storage architectures at Cerebras Systems, best known for creating the world's most advanced Ai Computational Clusters and Supercomputers. Building on experience with FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris, and other Big Iron UNIXs going back to 1999, the decades of dedication to this engineering artform have come to influence her architectural decisions while affording a cognitive endurance that is so necessary amidst the rising tides which Ai has come to define.

The Recently Bygone

Previously, she served as Principal Architect at Fastly CDN for a seven year tenure, building performance-engineering and hardware research labs which supported one of the world’s largest web-caching infrastructures, crucial to global internet traffic. Over past decades there have been many datacenters, air-gapped networks, database clusters, long range wireless back-haul, rainforest wifi networking and nearly everything in-between.

Challenging Limits

Concurrently, she co-founded an agentic LLM research startup with her husband, and actively contributes to the FreeBSD and OpenZFS communities. In her reflective time, she authors a website (it's this one!) for engineering topics, with reflections on life events, as well as insights on philosophy and cognitive neuroscience. Where social networks are concerned, those are linked on the Profiles page.

Alles Ist Voll Von Liebe

Eva's fondness for reading varies from adventure, exploration, history, and sci-fi, along with a propensity for mid-20th century historical romance. Her love of writing has authored short stories, research documents, and poetry long lost. Photography has been an enduring passion, from 35mm film to digital, and generative workflows too, the art of representative memory abounds.
