Why CYRATEK?
We believe that elite technical mastery shouldn't depend on privilege, pedigree, or finding a rare mentor by chance. Tomorrow’s tech pioneers are built through deliberate action.
CYRATEK was born out of a real-world problem faced by our co-founder, Sharif Husein. Today, Sharif is an Electrical and Electronics Engineer who collaborates within global, cross-functional teams to research and develop the next-generation home appliances. However, his path wasn't linear. Growing up, he had no industry professional to guide him. He didn’t write his very first line of computer code until his freshman year of university.
Determined to turn his early challenges into a launchpad for others, Sharif partnered with Dr. Akeem Ola, who has spent the past 17years researching and working on novel technologies in the field of electrical and electronics engineering, to found CYRATEK. They set out to build the exact ecosystem they both wished they had: an immersive, elite environment where ambitious minds can bridge the gap between theory and industry execution.
Our mission
We build high-performance digital infrastructure for mid-market companies. To sustain that infrastructure, we must train the workforce capable of running it. Through our intensive, project-based bootcamps in AI, electronics, and robotics, we eliminate the fluff and provide the rigorous, hands-on mentorship required to forge tomorrow's technology pioneers.
Our vision
To become the global architectural foundation for mid-market evolution, engineering the high-performance infrastructure that powers businesses, while forging the next generation of innovators who command it.
