  • Fearless Optimism : You share our ambitious vision of what we can accomplish.

  • Today, Not Tomorrow : There are always plenty of projects to tackle in a startup, but you prioritize, take accountability for work, and have a bias toward action.
  • Be Right Often : You don't do things just because that's how they've always been done. You keep looking for ways to improve, seek out feedback along the way, and back your decisions up with data.
  • Made of Rubber : Just like rubber, when you fall you bounce back up. You know there's going to be a lot of challenge and change in our work ahead but you are adaptable, resilient, and ready to thrive through it all.

  • Paid Company Holidays : Celebrate important dates with paid time off
  • Compensation Philosophy

    Formic's compensation packages - including salaries and equity - are thoughtfully benchmarked against peer companies at a similar growth stage. Equity represents a critical part of our mutual investment : when Formic succeeds, so do you.

    Final compensation packages are carefully customized based on candidate preference for cash and equity balance, experience, geographic location, and market considerations. Our goal is to attract and reward top talent who will significantly impact our organization. We're open to meaningful discussions about compensation structure to secure exceptional team members.
