About Stravex Technologies

Stravex Technologies Pvt Ltd is a Mumbai-based defense-tech startup building indigenous Counter-UAS (anti-drone) systems, precision Kamikaze drones, and high-performance drone components including Flight Controllers and Electronic Speed Controllers. Our mission is to build globally competitive, made-in-India solutions that strengthen national security and establish India as a leader in defense and drone technology.

Job Description

We are building the next generation of counter-drone and defense technology, and we're looking for young, enthusiastic professionals who want to be part of a team scaling to a global level.

This is an opportunity to join a fast-moving defense-tech startup at a stage where your contributions directly shape the company's growth — working on systems that don't yet exist anywhere else in India or the world.

What We're Looking For

• At least 2 years of experience in a corporate/professional environment, preferably in business development, sales, or a client-facing role
• Strong understanding of business growth strategy — identifying markets, building pipelines, and closing deals, with a clear focus on international/global client acquisition
• Fluency in multiple languages preferred — Spanish, Russian, French, or German, in addition to English, to support outreach and relationship-building with global clients
• A genuine passion for building something new — comfortable operating with ambiguity typical of an early-stage deep-tech startup
• Strong drive to grow with the company — we're looking for people who think like owners, not employees
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship management skills
• Willingness to travel extensively across India (and internationally, as required)
• An entrepreneurial mindset — excited by the challenge of scaling a defense-tech product from India to a global presence

What You'll Do

• Drive business development strategy for Stravex's Counter-UAS systems, drones, and drone components — with a focus on growing both domestic and international client bases
• Identify and pursue global markets and partnership opportunities, leveraging multilingual communication where relevant
• Build and nurture relationships with defense, government, and private-sector clients across geographies
• Represent the company at meetings, demos, and field testing across India and international markets
• Work directly with founders/leadership to shape growth strategy and go-to-market plans
• Contribute market feedback that directly influences product direction

Why Join Us

• Real ownership through ESOPs — grow with the company, not just work for it
• Competitive salary (CTC 6-7 LPA)
• Extensive travel exposure across India, with direct exposure to product testing and field operations
• Direct access to founders and leadership — no corporate hierarchy slowing you down
• A rare opportunity to help build indigenous defence technology from the ground up and take it global
