Interviews with IdentityMind Global’s Chief Marketing Officer & CTO.
Interview with Jose Caldera, Chief Marketing Officer:
Where did you start your career and how did you gain the experience needed to run the tech side of your company?
I started in a small services startup integrating network security products into financial institutions. Then went to Carnegie Mellon University for a master’s program on information networking, which is a mix between computer science and business. From there, I started to work as a consultant for assessing application and network security. Then as a security development engineer, and then moved to product management and have been doing product management and marketing since.
From a technologist’s perspective, what’s unique and game-changing about your technology?
Since the very beginning we started building digital identities to solve risk problems in the digital financial ecosystem. The notion of understanding digital identities was a game changer; the market is now understanding it. As we understand more about the use of digital identities, we are bringing innovative aspects into the analysis and exposing it through APIs to make it accessible to every one.
Tell us about your favorite implementation of your solution/technology.
We have a client that has been able to grow their customer base to millions of consumers and has been able to keep their compliance and risk team of the same size. They started with us when they were on-boarding only hundreds of customers a month. Now they are growing by tens of thousands per month, and their on-boarding is highly automatized. They have passed all regulatory compliance audit with flying colors, almost zero fraud, and still the same three people that were in their team when we started working together almost two years ago.
Interview with Kieran Sherlock, CTO:
Where did you start your career and how did you gain the experience needed to run the tech side of your company?
A 30 year series of startups, always staying long enough to learn from the hard times.
From a technologist’s perspective, what’s unique and game-changing about your technology?
The ability to embed examination of a user’s history and relationships (across our client base) into your transaction and account creation decisioning process.
Tell us about your favorite implementation of your solution/technology.
A large online retailer embedding our technology into their workflows to firstly reduce the number of transactions that require manual review, and secondly to expedite the decisioning of transactions that do require review.
