Edward Noyola
Founder. Builder. Explorer.

I've wanted to build a company since I was a kid. After five years as a cloud engineer working with 100+ companies, I finally started my own: ZoniteAI.

My Story Get in Touch

About Me

From engineer to founder.

Hey! I'm Edward (Ed to friends, Eduardo on LinkedIn). I've loved making things for as long as I can remember: toys, videos, anything cool. By eighth grade I already knew I wanted to build a company one day. First, though, I became a cloud engineer, the person companies call when they need their systems to run reliably, securely, and without breaking the bank. Over five years I worked with more than 100 companies across Latin America, helping them move to the cloud and keep it running.

I actually tried to start a company six years ago. I didn't have the money to register it, and the first thing every potential client asked was whether it was legally registered. So I went to work, and for five years I told myself "when I have more experience," "when I have more resources," "when I have XYZ." One day I realized that if I kept thinking that way, I'd be waiting for tomorrow forever. The AI revolution was happening right in front of my eyes. It was now or never. That's when I founded ZoniteAI.

Outside of work you'll usually find me traveling, out in nature, or making friends along the way. I think every person carries experiences and adventures you can learn from. Online I go by Edward Noyola, so you'll find me as @edwartnoyola on Instagram, TikTok, and X. On YouTube my main channel is Edward Noyola, where I share travel and lifestyle vlogs, plus EdwardCortex for cloud and AI and itsedozan for gaming.

What I Believe

My dream is to change the world and help humanity move forward. I want to leave a legacy, and when I'm gone, I want the world, or wherever we are by then, to be a better place to live.

Life is more than solving problems.

You need a reason to wake up and want to get going every day. You can't spend the years of your life doing something you don't love.

Give your best, always.

I'd rather give everything I've got than do just enough. And somehow that effort pushes the people around me to raise their game too.

Learn from everyone you meet.

I like making friends along the way. Every person carries experiences and adventures worth learning from.

Currently Building

Now or never.

I put off "my company" for years, waiting to have enough experience, enough resources, enough of everything. Then AI started changing the world in front of my eyes, and I stopped waiting. ZoniteAI is a company focused on artificial intelligence with one goal: helping people and organizations adopt it, because I believe AI is going to change humanity. It's where most of my energy goes today.
