Is Cognizant hiring? Open roles, functions and locations (2026)
This page reads every active posting attributed to Cognizant across the ten boards JobsPipe collects (LinkedIn, Indeed, Y Combinator, Workday, Greenhouse, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Ashby, Lever and Paylocity) and reports the mix as shares: which functions and titles the company posts, how senior the roles are, where they sit, which skills the text names, and which boards carry them. Only percentages are published; the underlying counts stay private.
75.1% of Cognizant's open roles were first sighted in the last 30 days, 30.6% in the last 14, 24.9% have been open for more than 30 days. 11.2% of the postings are marked remote and 44.3% state a salary or range. The remote flag is read from the posting itself, so hybrid roles that never say remote count as on-site.
The largest function is Engineering at 17.0%, followed by IT & Security at 11.7%. 47.0% of the roles are located in United States, then India at 21.2%. The titles Cognizant posts most are Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack Developer and Consulting Manager.

Does Cognizant hire remote?+

Where is Cognizant hiring?+
By posting location, the largest shares are United States (47.0%), India (21.2%) and Canada (7.6%). The company is headquartered in Teaneck, United States. Location is the country on the posting, not the headquarters, so a company can post mostly outside the country it is based in.
How do I get Cognizant's postings from the API?+
POST to /v1/jobs/search with company_name_or set to ["Cognizant"] and status set to active. There is no domain filter; the company name is matched as it appears on the posting. Add job_title_or, remote or job_country_code_or to narrow the result, and discovered_at_gte to keep only roles sighted after a date.
How are roles attributed to Cognizant?+
By the employer domain on the posting. When a board or ATS exposes the employer's website, JobsPipe resolves it to a domain and groups every posting under it; postings that only carry a company name are matched to a domain where the name is unambiguous. Domain attribution is a signal, not proof: a staffing partner can post under a client's name, and a subsidiary can post under its parent's domain.
