Built Around a Single Idea:
Learning Works Better at the Bench
Kaevo was set up to offer a different kind of technical education — structured, hands-on, and organised like a workstation where every concept has its place.
Back to HomeWhere Kaevo Came From
Kaevo started in Cyberjaya when a small group of developers — all working in technical roles around machine learning infrastructure — kept running into the same problem. Developers joining ML projects often had strong software skills but little sense of how their workloads actually sat on hardware. The gap between code and substrate was wide, and standard online resources filled it poorly.
Rather than build another set of video lectures, the founding team designed something closer to a lab session: a structured, physical environment with real equipment, printed reference cards, and facilitators who could actually respond to what participants encountered. The first Introductory Workshop ran at a rented Cyberjaya space in early 2023. It filled up twice, the feedback was clear, and Kaevo formalised from there.
By 2024, Kaevo had established a permanent venue at Lengkok Cyberpoint 6 and expanded the programme range to include the Applied Skills Series and Corporate Training Package. The mission has stayed consistent throughout: give developers and teams a properly organised place to work through hardware knowledge without rushing past the parts that matter.
Our Guiding Principles
-
Structure over speed
A concept worth learning is worth understanding properly. Sessions are paced for depth, not throughput.
-
Hands-on by default
Every session involves direct engagement with material and equipment. Watching slides is not a substitute.
-
Labelled and accessible
Reference materials are designed to be used after the session, not archived. Content should remain usable.
-
Small groups, honest facilitation
Keeping groups small means facilitators can respond to real questions, not just deliver a script.
Who Runs the Sessions
Kaevo's facilitators come from engineering and research backgrounds. They've worked on the problems participants are trying to understand.
Zulaikha Azhari
Lead FacilitatorFormer ML infrastructure engineer with experience across edge deployment and accelerator benchmarking. Designs Kaevo's core workshop curriculum.
Rajiv Fernandez
Applied Sessions FacilitatorBackground in firmware and embedded systems with a focus on workload profiling. Leads the Applied Skills Series and corporate delivery planning.
Nurul Izzati
Programme CoordinatorCoordinates scheduling, onboarding, and corporate engagement. Ensures each cohort gets the setup and preparation they need before the first session.
How We Run Things
Kaevo's operating standards reflect the same attention to organisation we bring to the learning content itself.
Participant Data Privacy
Attendance and contact details are held only as long as needed for programme administration. No data is shared with third-party marketing services.
Session Quality Review
Every workshop ends with a structured feedback process. Content and facilitation are adjusted between cohorts based on what participants report.
Equipment Readiness
Workshop equipment is verified before each session begins. Participants shouldn't spend lab time troubleshooting setups that should have been checked already.
Updated Reference Materials
Lab notes and handbooks are reviewed ahead of each programme cycle. Information that's become outdated gets corrected, not left in.
Inclusive Participation
Sessions are designed so that participants who learn at different paces can follow the core material. Facilitators are available during activities, not just after.
Corporate Clarity
Organisations booking the Corporate Training Package receive a clear written outline of scope, schedule, and deliverables before any payment is made.
Technical Education Grounded in Hardware Reality
Machine learning development spans an enormous range of concerns, from data preparation through to deployment optimisation. One area that receives less structured attention is the hardware layer — how GPUs, NPUs, and other accelerators actually process workloads, what their performance characteristics look like in practice, and how architectural choices at the hardware level shape what's possible at the model level.
Kaevo's workshops address this gap directly. The Introductory Workshop introduces the vocabulary and concepts a developer needs to start reading hardware behaviour meaningfully. The Applied Skills Series builds on that with multi-session, lab-based engagement designed to develop confident, independent reasoning about workload-hardware fit. For organisations, the Corporate Training Package allows this kind of education to reach whole teams with content shaped around their specific context.
All of this happens at a physical location in Cyberjaya — Malaysia's primary technology development corridor — with real equipment, printed reference materials, and facilitators who can engage with questions as they arise. The intent isn't to replace online resources but to offer something that online formats can't easily replicate: a properly organised space to work through technical material with the attention it requires.
