Job description

Behavox is shaping the future of how businesses harness their most important raw material – data. Our mission is bold: organize enterprise data into actionable information that protects and promotes the business growth of multinational companies around the world. From managing enterprise risk and compliance to maximizing revenue and value, our data operating platform presents a wide‑spread opportunity to build multilingual, AI/ML‑based solutions that activate data for every function within a global enterprise. Our approach is unique and it’s validated by our customers who tell us to keep forging ahead because no one else is aggregating, analysing, and acting on data to uncover opportunities or solve problems quite the way we are. We are looking for fearless innovators who have an insatiable appetite for building what no one has built before.

About the Role

As a Software Engineer you will join a strong team of subject‑matter experts in areas ranging from API development and modern cloud‑native capabilities (such as running AI models on DataFlow and performing analytics queries on BigQuery) to managing petabytes of data across SQL, NoSQL, and object storages in production environments used by real customers daily. Our team is built on collaboration, innovation, and a shared drive for technical excellence – you’ll always have opportunities to learn and grow from some of the brightest minds in the industry.

In this role you will work closely with product management, design, and other engineering teams to solve complex technical problems and deliver outstanding products to our clients on time. You will enjoy the right level of autonomy to express your creativity during the design and implementation stages, supported by well‑defined processes and a team of highly skilled professionals. We are committed to maintaining and evolving our technology stack to ensure it meets the highest standards of performance, reliability, and maintainability. Regular updates to our development infrastructure are a priority, ensuring you’ll always work with the latest tools and frameworks.

Why Join Behavox?

• Make an Impact – you’ll have the visibility and opportunity to make meaningful contributions that directly impact our business.
• A Proven Product with Room to Grow – our products have already demonstrated their value proposition but continue to have tremendous potential for further growth and innovation.
• Learn from the Best – join a strong team of technical professionals who bring expertise in diverse areas, providing you with opportunities to learn and grow.
• Engineering‑Driven – engineering is a core driver of our success, and we place equal importance on technical excellence as we do on other business functions.
• Agile and Dynamic Teams – work in small feature teams with short development cycles and dedicated releases. You’ll be empowered to share your ideas and see them implemented from day one.

What You’ll Bring

• A deep and genuine interest in Behavox as demonstrated by a connection to its mission, marketplace and/or technologies.
• 5+ years of experience building scalable and reliable server‑side cloud‑native applications, with solid knowledge of the latest version of Java.
• Proficiency in the design and implementation of containerized and serverless components/services within a high‑load, data‑intensive architecture for large‑scale distributed systems.
• Developed skills and experience with SQL databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or BigQuery, and NoSQL databases like ScyllaDB, HBase or BigTable.
• Experience with message brokers such as Google Cloud Pub/Sub, Kafka, or RabbitMQ (advantageous).

What You’ll Do

• Develop complex scalable services and components in Java, leveraging cloud‑native technologies to build large‑scale distributed systems capable of processing dozens of gigabytes (or more) of data daily.
• Contribute to the analysis of product requirements, solution discussions and decisions on the implementation plan.
• Work collaboratively with the other team members (planning, technical discussions, status meetings, code review).
• Take ownership of the assigned features and tasks, demonstrating the ability to be autonomous and learn quickly.
• Write automated tests for product features (unit, integration, contract, component and end‑to‑end) to improve overall product quality.

What We Offer

• A truly global mission with a passionate highly talented community in locations all over the world.
• The ability to have significant impact and potential for learning as our aspirations require bold innovation.
• A highly competitive cash compensation package with performance bonuses baked into salary payments.
• A flexible work schedule that allows for Remote or Hybrid work as appropriate to the role and location.
• A very generous time‑off policy (30 days annually), with public holidays for your geography in addition.

About Our Process

We take talent very seriously and we are building a community of extraordinary individuals working together in very high‑performing teams. We also know that the best talent always has options so we believe that the process has to be a two‑way assessment – the company and the candidate assessing the business needs alignment, the career next step alignment, and the cultural alignment. During the process we will begin by exploring the core factors regarding salary and location along with core experience and skills and values alignment. We will then deep dive into the critical technical competencies we have identified for the role and then we will deep dive into behavioral competencies. The most aligned candidate will then be asked to do a practical work task simulation activity so we can make sure that you will enjoy the kind of work the role requires, and this task will typically be presented and discussed with a group of colleagues and managers. Finally we will ask you to meet with a number of our senior leaders to make sure that you are making the most informed call possible. The interviews may be recorded.
