Hi! My name is Chris, I’m the CEO of
11Sigma, and
I’d like to invite you to enter our small, yet a very ambitious team.
We started 11Sigma in 2018 with a vision of a world of opportunities and the freedom enabled by remote work.
We believe that
remote work is a lifestyle, it’s about the culture, values, and mindset,
not a “corporate benefit” nor a “post-COVID reality”.
Our three values: explore, be free, and contribute define who we are, and what we do.
Our dream is to build a company
open to everyone, which supports you in experiencing an exciting, fulfilling life.
11Sigma is about exploring. Both literal, as in a journey, as well as open-mindedness, self-growth, and curiosity of life and at work.
We are software engineers, travelers, digital nomads, caring parents, adventurers. We are internally-motivated problem solvers and contributors.
To us, life is an adventure, and the world is incredibly interesting. We are
hungry to learn new things and explore our potential.
To find exciting work and open amazing opportunities
we partner with tech startups that build incredible products and provide healthy work-life balance.
If the above resonates with you, please read on.
Job Description
You will join
11Sigma and will be working with one of the three teams at
Stoplight (our partner) to
create complex, high-performing API Design web applications using the latest technology stack and best practices. You’ll work hand to hand with some of the greatest engineers in the API space.
The product you will work on helps hundreds of companies (like
zoom.us) adopting the Design-First approach to building, exploring, and governing APIs.
Besides the
Stoplight Platform,
our engineers work on OpenSource projects such as the API linting tool
Spectral, and the API mocking tool
Prism.
Those tools are becoming de-facto standards in the API development world. OpenSource tools we build
are presented by independent developers on the largest and most influential API conferences.
This job
requires both exceptional engineering and UI/UX skills. Your main focus will be engineering but a great aesthetic sense is a huge advantage.
