Join Pigment: The AI Platform Redefining Business Planning Pigment is the AI-powered business planning and performance management platform built for agility and scale. We connect people, data, and processes in one intuitive platform, with AI agents that work alongside every team, from Finance to HR, to build, adapt, and align strategic plans in real time.

Founded in 2019, Pigment is one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies globally, passing $100M in ARR in 2026 and doubling revenue for the second year in a row. Industry leaders like Unilever, Uber, Anthropic, Snowflake, and Siemens use Pigment every day to make better-informed decisions and navigate any scenario with confidence.

In October 2026, we raised a $250M Series E at a $2.3B valuation, bringing our total funding to $650M+. Today we’re a growing team of 700+ across Paris, London, New York, Toronto, San Francisco, and Austin, and we’ve been named a Visionary in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Planning Software two years running.

At Pigment, we take smart risks, celebrate bold ideas, and challenge the status quo - all while working as one team. If you’re driven by innovation and ready to make an impact at scale, we’d love to hear from you.

On the engineering part:

Design and implement high-performance, scalable, and responsive user interfaces.
Optimize frontend performance to ensure smooth and efficient user experiences.
Tackle real-time challenges, enabling concurrent editing resilient to network disruptions, based on a single source of truth managed through efficient caching.
Translate functional requirements into elegant and simple designs, delivering high-quality code.
Understand and address the product and customer needs, suggesting innovative ideas to deliver maximum value to end users.
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:

Coach up to six direct reports, providing guidance and support (usually every two weeks).
Define expectations, collect and deliver feedback, and build career development plans using our skill leveling matrix.
Participate in performance-related decisions with other managers, including proposing and calibrating salary raises and handling under-performance remediation.
(Optional) Lead ad hoc projects to structure engineering efforts, such as organizing technical demos, leading All Hands meetings, or evolving 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 of one another.

Who you are

Experience as a software engineer working on a product in production - for managers specifically, this experience must be evaluated during the interview process at a “senior” level (that is, usually from 7-8 years).
Experience in people management of at least 2-3 years.
Proven experience with front technologies such as TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, React, Vue, and Angular (among others).
Great team spirit with a problem-solving attitude and user experience focus
A good dose of humility and the willingness to grow (no matter your seniority!).
A fluent level of English (French is not a must).

What you will get

Competitive salary
Equity
The best health insurance with Alan Blue is entirely free for you and your family 💙
Trust and flexible working hours
Brand new offices in the heart of Paris, London, New York, and, Toronto
Remote-friendly environment
