Packaging compliance and sustainability software for global brands
Recyda builds software to help large multinational brands and retailers navigate packaging regulations and optimize sustainability across markets. The tech stack (Node.js + TypeScript + React + ArangoDB + GraphQL) reflects a full-stack, data-centric engineering approach; the hiring mix — sales-heavy with lean engineering and product — signals a sales-led go-to-market phase focused on land-and-expand into enterprise accounts, where the core challenge is translating complex, fragmented regulations into working assessment logic.
Recyda provides a platform for managing packaging sustainability compliance across international markets.
