Company mission

To provide the tools that engineering teams need to efficiently manage hardware data and build the machines of the future.

Role

Who you are

  • If you’re looking for complex technical challenges and the opportunity to build foundational systems supporting complex machines from the ground up, we want to hear from you
  • 3+ years of professional experience building web applications and data-driven tools
  • Strong experience building production applications with technologies like React, NextJS, and TypeScript
  • Strong understanding of web performance optimization and browser rendering
  • Experience with modern CSS (Tailwind) and component libraries (Radix UI) for building design systems

Desirable

  • Experience with technical visualization tools (WebGL, D3.js, Apache ECharts) and time-series data
  • Knowledge of WebAssembly and browser-based computation
  • Background in scientific computing or technical data visualization
  • Experience building tools for technical users (dashboards, data-editing environments)
  • Built and launched side projects with consistent usage traffic

What the job involves

  • As an early engineer at Sift, you won’t just write code—you’ll help define the architecture, shape the product, and influence the culture of a company focused on solving real engineering problems

Our take

Sift develops tools to accelerate and ensure the reliability of complex machines. Its platform processes hardware sensor data, providing automated analysis and detailed reports to identify and explain potential issues. This enables users in aviation, defense, energy and transportation to enhance system reliability and comply with regulatory requirements more efficiently.

The platform automates manual data review, which both enhances reliability and speeds up development. Customers like Astranis and Parallel Systems use Sift's observability stack to turn sensor data into actionable insights, which would have likely remained undiscovered when using other systems.

With funding to its name, Sift is ready to broaden its manufacturing automation suite to link sensor data with manufacturing information. This will mean it can help with anomaly detection and performance analysis. It is also making advancements with AI integration for regulatory compliance, which sets it up as a key innovator in the space.
