Built and ran multi-site R&D programmes across Europe, North America, Egypt and Israel — complex IoT, semiconductor, firmware and security systems.
ABOUT QEINO
Built by operators who paid for this problem before they solved it.
The only question a regulated buyer truly has about a young vendor is whether to trust it inside the perimeter. Our answer is who we are: engineers who lived the late-knowledge gap from the inside, as the people paying for it.
Founder-market fit
Our team has spent its career inside the organisations Qeino sells to. Through years of building and running multi-site R&D programmes — complex IoT, semiconductor, firmware and security systems across Europe, North America, Egypt and Israel — we have lived the late-knowledge gap as the operator paying for it, not the vendor describing it. We know what a slipped critical path costs, because we have paid the bill.
Our CTO is a veteran security engineer who has worked inside the core systems of major manufacturers, and understands at first hand why a regulated organisation will not send its engineering data to a public cloud. That is not a market we researched. It is the one we come from.
“We exist to close the gap between the moment a delivery risk becomes knowable and the moment a human is told — without asking anyone to send their IP somewhere it should never go.”
The team
A small founding team with deep credibility in the verticals that are hardest for an outsider to enter, building deliberately — vertical depth and product first, the commercial scaling capability added on the critical path. Full biographies for Jonathan Smith (CEO) and the founding team appear here.
Techteamz
Qeino is backed and networked through Techteamz, whose relationships run deep in exactly the verticals Qeino serves — the dense, hard-to-enter networks of regulated, engineering-led organisations across Europe and Israel.
Advisors
Our advisory bench is built deliberately. Advisor entries, including an ex-incumbent engineering leader, appear here as appointments are confirmed.
No attested figure on file. Numbers appear here only when named, dated and CFO-signed.
