The Opportunity
We are looking for senior software engineers who can also be people managers of other software engineers, for a share of their time (up to 50%).
On the software engineering part:
More than knowledge of a specific language or framework, we are looking for great software engineering skills:
ability to translate functional requirements into an elegant and simple design, and then deliver the code.
We are also looking for engineers who understand the product and the customer's needs in detail and can suggest innovative ideas: in the end, it's all about delivering value to end users.
On the people management part, here is what it entails:
- coaching up to 6 direct reports (usually every 2 weeks)
- defining expectations, collecting and delivering feedback
- building career development plans (we have a skill leveling matrix)
- participating in performance-related decisions with other managers (ex: proposing and calibrating salary raises), including under-performance remediation
- (optional) leading ad hoc projects with other managers to structure engineering (ex: organize technical demos, animate an All Hands, lead evolutions to our skill leveling matrix)
In the Pigment engineering team, people managers do not have the responsibility of a particular technical domain, as this is the role of technical leads: this way, we make sure career decisions and technical choices are independent from one another.

What We Do
In a world moving at an incredibly fast pace, businesses have grown accustomed to change. Transforming their business model, pivoting their strategy, rethinking their go-to-market, the list goes on.
To enable these changes, they have also had to rethink the way they work.
Breaking down silos isn’t a best practice anymore. It’s a given.
And yet, when it comes to planning, little has changed. In fact, planning tools work the exact opposite way, reinforcing data and people silos, and preventing teams from working together toward their common goals.
As a result, planning is usually seen as a dreadful process.
But the truth is, planning drives strategy. It’s high time we serve it with the right tools.
Pigment is the business planning platform for fast-growing companies. Our mission is to help companies make better, faster decisions in a changing world, and drive revenue growth.
At Pigment we believe that:
✅ Real-time data informs better outcomes. Trim your sail, and make the best use of current winds.
✅ Reporting should be accurate, quick, and insightful.
✅ Planning should be simple, smooth, and delightful.
✅ Less time should be spent on data crunching, more time on bringing insights to the business.
✅ Collaboration should be at the heart of any planning process, so your organization works as one.
