Top SchoolStacey Son is a seasoned computer engineer with 18 years of experience designing large-scale internet systems, data center architectures, and OS-level security features. She has led and founded technical teams—from creating early VPS technology and scaling hosting platforms for millions of users to architecting core OS security at Apple and consulting on trusted systems at SRI and Cambridge. An active FreeBSD/TrustedBSD volunteer since 2008, she contributes security fixes and hardening work to open-source operating systems. Her expertise spans C/C++/Obj-C/assembly and cryptographic standards (Common Criteria, FIPS), blending low-level engineering with practical deployment at internet scale. Based in Dallas, she combines academic training (MSci/BSci) with entrepreneurial experience and a history of advising an engineering department, making her equally at home solving research problems or shipping production systems.
