Jahja Nur Zulbeari

I founded EPAGE at sixteen and spent six years shipping 120+ production systems — bespoke SaaS platforms, AI infrastructure, and enterprise web applications — for founders across Europe, the United States, Canada, and the UAE.

In 2026 the studio became Zulbera to reflect a single discipline: engineering digital infrastructure with the patience of architecture and the rigour of code built to outlast a launch cycle. Today I lead technical direction, client partnerships, and long-term product strategy — the work of building software that's still useful five years from now.
