AI-powered freight forwarding platform for global supply chains
Zencargo operates a multi-modal freight forwarding business (ocean, air, road, rail) anchored by an AI platform and supply chain copilot. The tech stack reveals a backend-heavy engineering posture (Kotlin + Spring Boot + PostgreSQL) paired with operational tooling (NetSuite, Thoughtspot), and active adoption of Kotlin and Reflex signals continued investment in platform modernization. Current hiring skews toward engineering (7 of 15 open roles) across distributed geographies, suggesting scaling of the technology layer to handle growing logistics complexity.
Zencargo combines traditional freight forwarding with AI-driven supply chain intelligence, serving mid-market exporters and importers across major trade routes. The company operates as a full-service provider: rate negotiation, booking, tracking, and customs management across multiple transport modes and geographies. Internal focus areas include booking/tracking shipment workflows, rate optimization, capacity planning, and M&A integration — indicating both organic scaling and inorganic growth. Pain points center on operational streamlining, margin protection through cost efficiency, technical debt reduction, and multi-currency invoicing accuracy.
Backend: Kotlin, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, MySQL. Analytics and BI: Thoughtspot. Frontend: React, Python, Java. ERP/Finance: NetSuite. Infrastructure and security: Google Workspace, Intune, Jamf, Cisco Meraki, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne. Currently adopting Kotlin and Reflex.
