Sigmoid
About this role
Sigmoid is a data engineering and analytics company that builds modern data platforms for large enterprises using cloud and open source tooling, with offices across the USA, India, the UK, the Netherlands, Poland, Canada and Singapore. This role is backend rather than pipeline work: you plan and build server side services and APIs for its Product Engineering division, working alongside product managers, designers and frontend engineers. The stack named in the posting is Node.js with Express.js or NestJS, and it asks for real depth in data structures, algorithms and backend design rather than framework familiarity alone. Sigmoid's own metadata sets the band at 2 to 5 years, so this is genuinely open to engineers early in their career, which is unusual for backend work on this board right now.
Who this is for
Required by the posting: a bachelor's degree in technology or a related field, and a minimum of 2 or more years of professional experience. Sigmoid's own job metadata records the band as 2 to 5 years. Hands on experience with Node.js and related frameworks such as Express.js or NestJS. Strong grounding in data structures, algorithms and backend design.
The day to day: build server side applications that are efficient and reusable. Design and build scalable backend services and APIs for the Product Engineering division. Explore and design data driven experiences for cloud based products. Work closely with product managers, designers and frontend developers. Take part actively in design and code reviews.
Location: Bengaluru. The posting does not state office days.
Who should apply: backend engineers two to five years in whose main language is JavaScript or TypeScript on the server. Because Sigmoid's core business is data engineering, this is a good route in if you eventually want to move toward data platform work but are currently strongest in application backends. If your strength is Python and Spark instead, Sigmoid's Software Development Engineer II role in the same city is the better fit, and it is also on today's list.
