Francisco Dias

Francisco Dias is Co-Founder and CTO at Nex (YC S26), an AI-powered platform that turns manual business and GTM workflows into autonomous AI agents across 1000+ integrations.
Francisco studied Graphic Design at Northeastern University and spent years at HubSpot, where he was the 4th engineer on HubSpot CRM (pre-IPO) and the first product-focused engineer on HubSpot's AI infrastructure team.
At HubSpot, Francisco co-wrote the company's first component library, mentored 10+ individual contributors into technical leads, and helped ship the BostonGlobe.com responsive website, one of the most ambitious of its kind.
Francisco brings deep engineering leadership and AI infrastructure expertise to Nex, where the platform differentiates itself by writing code as it works, making workflows deterministic, fast, and cost-efficient to re-run.
Nex, backed by Y Combinator (Summer 2026), is a 5-person team based in San Francisco, targeting the multi-billion dollar market for agentic business process automation with real, structured output delivery.
