Bazel is as much an HR Department (licenses, supply chain source of truth, entry point for sec teams to add stuff to, auto generate jiras for out of date deps etc) as it is a build system. If you mean an actual startup (and not startup as in airbnb), then use the native build systems until a standardized system like bazel is needed.
