Green-card intent detected
Sigma Computing, Inc. obtained a prevailing wage determination for Computer and Information Systems Managers in San Francisco, CALIFORNIA on 2026-06-30. No matching green-card filing appears in our data yet. The determination expires in 21 days (2026-09-27), and a green-card filing must follow before then or the employer starts over.
Files H-1B transfers
9 transfer filings in the last year, covering 9 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 8 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

- Run live technical sessions. Lead discovery sessions, working sessions, and troubleshooting calls with both business users and data engineers. Adjust your technical depth to the room and keep your composure when the stakes are high.
- Escalate issues and needs, and document them. Surface technical blockers, integration gaps, and customer requests to the right internal team, and document them clearly so they can be tracked, prioritized, and resolved with full context.

Requirements
- 5+ years in a customer-facing technical role: forward deployed engineering, solutions or sales engineering, analytics engineering, professional services, or similar.
- You can shape messy source data into something a business team can actually use.
- Direct experience with cloud data platforms: Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, or Redshift.
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, a related field, or equivalent technical and business experience.
Nice to have

- As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll be the person who proves that out inside our most important accounts, and you'll help define how Sigma shows up in the field as the team grows.
