Job description

About the Role

Sigma Computing is redefining business intelligence by making complex data analysis accessible through a high-performance platform built for the modern data stack. The Compiler Team plays a foundational role in this mission by transforming user-driven spreadsheet interactions into highly optimized SQL queries, enabling seamless exploratory analytics on cloud data warehouses. As a member of the Compiler Team, you will join a group of engineers dedicated to building the core systems and abstractions that power Sigma's intuitive spreadsheet interface, ensuring speed, reliability, and scalability for all users.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Tackle core challenges at the intersection of data modeling, query compilation, and large-scale interactive analytics-making it possible for end-users to query data warehouses efficiently without deep technical knowledge
  • Design, build, and maintain sophisticated compiler infrastructure and intermediate representations that translate spreadsheet operations into optimized query plans
  • Apply advanced optimization strategies to improve performance and accuracy across a wide range of query workloads and data architectures
  • Contribute to both backend (Rust) and key frontend foundations (TypeScript), evolving critical abstractions that enable end-to-end workflow optimizations and new features 
  • Debug, analyze, and resolve complex issues, ensuring robustness and maintainability in a rapidly evolving product
  • Collaborate with engineers and product stakeholders to review designs and code, driving technical best practices and architectural decisions throughout the team and company

Qualifications We Need

  • 5+ years experience engineering high-quality software systems
  • Demonstrated success building and maintaining complex infrastructure or core platform services
  • Deep understanding of Computer Science fundamentals, particularly in compilers, algorithms, SQL Optimization
  • Passion for teamwork, technical ownership, and continually raising the engineering bar
  • Experience working in an iterative, high-cadence environment

Qualifications We Want (also, skills you'll learn!)

  • Exposure to distributed systems, query optimization, or database internals
  • Experience with API or data model design in the context of high-performance cloud services
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (e.g., GCP, AWS, Azure)
  • A curiosity for new languages and tools, and a drive to solve challenging problems at scale (Rust, Go, Node, K8s, GraphQL)

Additional Job details

The base salary range for this position is $170k - $235k annually.

Compensation may vary outside of this range depending on a number of factors, including a candidate's qualifications, skills, competencies and experience. Base pay is one part of the Total Package that is provided to compensate and recognize employees for their work at Sigma Computing. This role is eligible for stock options, as well as a comprehensive benefits package.
