Summary
Zaher Marzuq is a founder and cybersecurity-focused CEO with 9 years of experience building systems that protect e-commerce platforms from fraud and malware. He founded Skyflare to deliver the first fully automated cybersecurity solution for SMB online stores, owning product, engineering and go-to-market tasks while shipping a React management console and Python backend. Previously a CTO and VP of Engineering at KIWI.KI, Zaher migrated large IoT fleets to AWS, ran pen-tests, and built monitoring for thousands of always-online devices. His earlier decade at Trusteer/IBM Security combined hands-on development of high-throughput detection systems, low-level crypto and driver work, and team leadership across R&D and QA. Comfortable across stacks from embedded RTOS to cloud-native Kubernetes, he pairs technical depth with fundraising, certification, and operational experience. Notably, he has engineered compact, high-performance malware scanners and detection ML models tailored for resource-constrained e-commerce deployments.
