Today
Artificial intelligence
Building AI infrastructure, autonomous workflow systems, evaluation frameworks, and Azathoth at Eldritch.
About Eldritch
We build software for complex systems.
Eldritch, Inc. is a software company focused on the engineering problems that emerge as artificial intelligence becomes part of larger, increasingly complex software systems.
The company
Engineering the systems around intelligence.
Eldritch was founded to build ambitious software at the intersection of distributed systems, automation, developer infrastructure, and artificial intelligence.
Today, our primary focus is Azathoth: an open-source framework for constructing, evaluating, and optimizing AI workflows.
We believe increasingly capable AI systems require the same engineering discipline expected from every other important software system: explicit architecture, repeatable evaluation, measurable behavior, and evidence-driven optimization.
Founder
Eris Discordia Montano
Founder & Principal Engineer
Eris is a software engineer, architect, and engineering leader with nearly three decades of experience building and modernizing complex technical systems.
Her career has moved through scientific research, commercial online gaming, enterprise infrastructure, distributed systems, cloud engineering, organizational transformation, and artificial intelligence.
She has architected systems across healthcare, biotechnology, telecommunications, logistics, agriculture, enterprise SaaS, gaming, and AI, while mentoring engineers and leading technical organizations through major shifts in how software is built.
Selected history
Three decades of technological change.
Cloud era
Distributed systems & engineering transformation
Architected cloud platforms, event-driven systems, enterprise infrastructure, and modernization initiatives while coaching engineering organizations through major technical transitions.
Internet era
Networked applications & multiplayer systems
Built enterprise web applications, telecommunications platforms, RFID systems, real-time audience technologies, and commercial multiplayer gaming infrastructure.
Origins
Science & computation
Began in medical device research, molecular biology, and plant genetic engineering before moving fully into software.
Engineering leadership
Build systems. Build engineers.
Engineering is not only architecture and code. It is also the ability to create environments in which other engineers become better.
Eris founded QDivision, an internal engineering accelerator that graduated 23 engineers across three cohorts into production Agile teams. Every graduate advanced to a senior engineering role within approximately one year.
What comes next
The next transition is already underway.
Eldritch exists to help engineer it.
