Pigment's standard text
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.
Our Engineering team
Our Engineering team is responsible for developing our SaaS platform and building a comprehensive and user-friendly product.
Pigment engineers participate in the entire application development lifecycle, focusing on design, coding, and keeping the production platform up and running. They can be specialized, but there is no strict separation between the backend and the frontend.
We value user-centricity and pragmatism: we choose the most relevant tools for the problem we have to solve, understanding the strengths and constraints of each technology.
Our engineering culture also values curiosity, humility, trust, ownership and team spirit.
Our technical stack is C# on .NET Core Linux, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Google Cloud Platform, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, RabbitMQ and Circle CI.

Who you are
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.
In any case, you have:
- Experiences as a software engineer working on a product in production.
- Proven experience designing object oriented software with languages such as C#, Java, C++, Golang, Rust, Python or Ruby (this list is not exhaustive).
- Great team spirit with a problem-solving attitude.
- A good dose of humility and the willingness to grow (no matter your seniority!).
Folks from underrepresented minorities: science shows that you are less likely to apply if you feel that you don’t have all the necessary prerequisites. If this description matches where you are now or what you'd like to grow into in your next position, we encourage you to apply.
What you will get
- Competitive salary
- Equity
- Trust and flexible working hours
- Brand new offices in the heart of Paris, London, New York and, Toronto
- Remote-friendly environment
