The employee benefits landscape needs a reset. Companies invest millions annually in benefits that employees neither value nor use regularly. Forma, founded in 2017, set out to challenge this one-size-fits-all approach.
Forma's global lifestyle benefits platform enables companies to offer competitive packages while reducing costs and inefficiencies. While giving employees more choice and flexibility in spending their benefit allowances, the Forma platform saves HR, total rewards, and benefits professionals countless hours they would have spent managing and supporting multiple point solutions.
With Forma, companies can choose from a suite of products, including Lifestyle Spending Accounts, Health Savings Accounts, Health Reimbursement Arrangements, Flexible Spending Accounts, and more. These products allow companies to design and deliver customized benefits programs through a single platform. Employees can then spend account funds in three ways: The Forma Store, The Forma Visa Card, or claim reimbursement.
Forma has helped hundreds of renowned companies, including Stripe, UKG, lululemon, and Tripadvisor, to design equitable, scalable, and flexible benefits programs for nearly 1 million employees worldwide.
Forma is backed by Emergence Capital and Ribbit Capital. We have received numerous awards for our exponential growth, innovation, and as a "Great Place to Work."
As Senior Manager on the Platform side at Forma, you'll lead the backend team responsible for the core systems that power our entire benefits platform. Your team owns the reliability, scalability, and performance of the backend systems that every product and customer-facing team builds on. Under your leadership, the team will drive end-to-end ownership of these services from architecture through deployment and operational excellence. You'll work closely with Engineering leadership, Product Management, Security, Customer Operations and other engineering teams to ensure our platform can scale reliably as we grow.
You'll also shape how the team builds, not just what it builds — AI-assisted development is changing the volume and shape of code flowing into our systems, and Platform owns the guardrails that keep that change safe.
At Forma, we value diversity, and always treat all employees and job applicants based on merit, qualifications, competence, and talent. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
Duties and responsibilities may not all be covered in the description, or may change over time at the discretion of Forma. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out—and set you apart—especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns. At Forma, we welcome diverse perspectives, and people who think rigorously / aren't afraid to challenge assumptions. Join us!
