ForMotiv is the first Digital Behavioral Intelligence (DBI) platform. Using advanced, explanation-based predictive behavioral analytics, ForMotiv gives organizations unprecedented levels of insight into their users, leading to increased conversions, better digital experiences, and reduced risk and fraud. We’re well financed and have earned the business of some of the world’s most well-respected insurance companies. We’re a scrappy, collaborative group that is open to challenging each other and believe in learning something new every day.

The Role:

We’re looking for a Solution Software Engineer – an energetic javascript expert and technology polyglot that enjoys challenging problems and values the opportunity to work with industry experts and push themselves to new heights. You’re a software engineer at heart, but you also love working with customers to solve real problems. This is a rare opportunity to get in on the ground-floor of a rapidly growing startup working at the intersection of web and AI. You will work on development of our javascript behavioral collection technology and related tooling. You will work directly with the technology, data science, and management teams.

Our solution starts with our Javascript Library that is embedded in customer web applications. The library captures user behaviors and interactions, capturing 100’s of millions of data points daily in our AWS platform. The platform leverages serverless, container-based facilities to create a highly performant and highly reliable service-based architecture. We operate over multiple data stores, including an S3/Glue/Athena data lake and a real-time postgres RDS service.

Responsibilities:

• Partner directly with multiple external customers, Account Management, and Solutions Engineering teams to understand diverse web application architectures and business goals
• Lead and support end-to-end integration of ForMotiv’s JavaScript behavioral data collection library into customer environments
• Serve as a technical advisor and problem solver, troubleshooting issues across different customer implementations and providing scalable solutions
• Build and customize front-end solutions and demos that clearly showcase product value in real-world customer use cases
• Work across a variety of JavaScript frameworks (React, Angular, Vue, etc.) to adapt integrations to each customer’s tech stack
• Collaborate with Engineering to enhance the JavaScript SDK, contributing to feature development, debugging, and performance improvements
• Support pre-sales and post-sales efforts, including technical discovery, solution design, and ongoing optimization
• Conduct performance, reliability, and integration testing across different environments and frameworks
• Evaluate and recommend best practices to improve customer implementations and product capabilities

Qualifications:

• You’re an engineer at heart, but you love working with customers!
• 4 year computer science or related degree (highly recommended, but may be waived with relevant experience)
• Strong mathematics and problem-solving skills
• 5 years of Javascript experience – developing with multiple front-end frameworks. Be prepared to show examples of your application of different frameworks, such as Angular, ReactJS, Vue.js, Ember, Meteor, etc.)
• Customer-facing experience preferred (internal or external)
• Experience using back-end API’s and programming.
• Machine Learning or Data Science experience (not required but a plus)
• Database and SQL experience (sql not required but a plus)
• Self-motivated, proactive, organized and a willingness to learn (and be taught)
• You’re comfortable in a fast-paced, unstructured environment
• Eagerness to wear multiple hats and lend a hand to your teammates when called upon

What ForMotiv Offers:

• Stock options with vested interest in growing the business
• Ground floor access to venture-backed technology start-up with global presence
• Permanent, full-time employment with company sponsored employee health, dental & 401k plans
• Flexibly offer both remote & in-office work environments

The Cultural Characteristics we look for:

• Curiosity: You look at each day as an opportunity to learn something new, not as an opportunity to prove what you already know.
• Work ethic: You look at each day as an opportunity to get better for yourself and your team.
• Empathy: You care how others feel around you, and you have the capacity to understand their points of view.
• Coachable: You know your strengths and weaknesses and you aren’t afraid to ask for help.
