Risk Management jobs in United States

DataEQ uses social media and other customer feedback data to help our clients (large enterprise brands) generate better CX insights, manage risk, improve conduct reporting and optimise social customer service. Data is at the heart of what we deliver, so our work requires a strong understanding of qualitative and quantitative methodologies, as well as the ability to structure data in innovative ways to address clients’ business problems.

We are looking for a generalist to join our small dev team. We build web applications used both by our staff, by our clients (everyone from small companies to large corporates), as well as a specialized crowdsourcing platform. We work on both front‑end code as well as back‑end: we process real‑time data streams provided to us via Twitter and other data sources, including traditional media sources (such as press and broadcast). This data needs to be efficiently stored so that it can be queried in real‑time. We annotate the data using our crowdsourcing platform as well as various machine learning systems and finally provide the data to our clients for either analysis or for them to respond to and interact with via our social media tool.

If you are interested in being able to learn to use and work with a wide range of tools and technologies, and grow as a full‑stack developer working on everything from server requisition to usability, reach out and talk to us — this might be the role and company for you. We value developers who are able to communicate well, both within the dev team but also in the company as a whole. Our team is small and a part of your role will be ensuring that the problems you work on, meet the needs and goals of the company. You will be working with and learning from an experienced team. We are agile‑lite and focus on delivering great software quickly.

The three main applications that we work on are a client‑facing data analytics and reporting platform, a social media engagement platform, and a crowdsourcing platform that we use to build our data sets for clients.

Our front‑end applications are JavaScript apps built with React or Vue.js, using D3.js for data visualization.
