About Flowt:

Flowt is revolutionizing working capital financing for African startups through AI-powered, data-driven lending decisions. We provide fast, affordable financing to B2B-focused startups in agriculture, renewable energy, transportation, and manufacturing sectors across Africa. We currently have a functioning demo platform built on Bubble.io with integrated data collection and AWS cloud storage, ready for migration to a more scalable architecture.

The Opportunity:

African B2B startups face a critical financing gap which keeps them from scaling - traditional lenders require 6-9+ months for due diligence while charging high interest rates. Flowt changes this by using AI-powered, data-driven lending to provide fast, affordable working capital in days, not months, for startups and formal sector SMEs.

What You'd Build:

As Co-Founder & CTO, you'll own the complete technical vision including:

  1. Building AI-powered risk assessment systems and automated financial data analysis
  2. Developing comprehensive loan management with integrated banking APIs through partnerships with local banks
  3. Scaling across multiple African markets with mobile-first design, starting in Kenya, with expansion to Nigeria on the horizon

What We're Looking For

  1. 7+ years supervising full-stack software development
  2. Experience with AI/ML integration, modern web frameworks & cloud services (AWS)
  3. Entrepreneurial mindset with experience on the leadership team of a startup
  4. Passion for solving problems in emerging markets
  5. Preferred but not required: fintech/banking experience in African markets

Why This Matters

  1. Massive impact: Address a multi-billion dollar financing gap for startups in Sub-Saharan Africa
  2. Cutting-edge tech: Work at the intersection of AI, fintech, and emerging markets
  3. Founder equity: Significant stake in building a fast growing company
  4. Strong foundation: Experienced team, VC networks, and banking partnerships
