Join us to reimagine how businesses integrate data and automate processes – with AI at the core.


About FloData

FloData is re-imagining the iPaaS and Business Process Automation (BPA) space for a new era - one where business teams, not just IT, can integrate data, run automations, and solve ops bottlenecks using intuitive, AI-driven interfaces. We're a small, hands-on team with a deep technical foundation and strong industry connects. Backed by real-world learnings from our earlier platform version, we're now going all-in on building a generative AI-first experience.


The Opportunity

We're looking for a Full-Stack Tech Lead who can drive the development of our new platform while mentoring a small but capable team. You'll own technical delivery across the stack (Next.js, Nest.js, Spring Boot, LangGraph on AWS), influence architecture decisions, and work closely with leadership on bringing our product vision to life.


If you're excited about building AI-native experiences, love working across the stack, and thrive in a fast-paced startup environment, this is your chance to shape a category-defining product.


What You'll Do

  • Spend 70% of your time designing, building, and reviewing software across frontend, backend, and AI layers
  • Guide a small engineering team (30% of your time) and lead from the front
  • Translate product and business needs into system designs and execution plans
  • Own the delivery of features and infrastructure that can scale to enterprise-grade workloads
  • Unblock the team, champion engineering best practices, and build a culture of quality
  • Contribute to architectural decisions and introduce new technologies as needed (e. g., queuing, observability, etc. )
  • Be a mentor, collaborator, and the go-to person for complex technical decisions
  • Advocate and implement AI-first principles in every layer of the product


You Might Be a Fit If You Have

  • 6-8 years of experience building and scaling full-stack applications
  • Proven track record in early-stage B2B SaaS or platform engineering teams
  • Strong command over modern web stacks - ideally Next.js, Nest.js, and Spring Boot
  • Comfort working with AWS and hybrid/on-premise infra setups
  • Experience or deep interest in building AI-powered user experiences (LangGraph, LLMs, etc.)
  • A strong sense of ownership, product thinking, and attention to detail
  • Startup mindset: resourceful, fast-moving, and outcome-focused
  • Experience with enterprise IT SAAS software (Salesforce, Oracle ERP, Netsuite, etc) is a plus


Why Join Us

  • Build a generational product at the intersection of AI, automation, and data
  • Work closely with founders and leadership with no layers of bureaucracy
  • Have end-to-end ownership of what you ship
  • Help shape the culture and tech foundations of a new, ambitious company
  • Onsite in Hyderabad, with flexibility when needed


Sounds like you?
