[Hiring] Engineering Manager - Frontend @Pigment

Role Description

Join Pigment’s Reporting & Collaboration community as a senior hands-on Frontend Engineer, working on complex parts of the product.

• Responsible for how users access, configure, and interact with their data.
• Face significant frontend challenges around large-scale datasets, filtering, visualization, complex configuration, and AI-powered experiences.

On the engineering part:

• Spend approximately 80% of your time as a hands-on engineer, designing, building, and shipping production features.
• Work on complex, data-heavy frontend problems where performance, usability, and scale matter.
• Build sophisticated interfaces for displaying, filtering, and interacting with large datasets.
• Work with React, TypeScript, and JavaScript, contributing to wider technical decisions.
• Partner closely with Product Managers, Product Designers, and Engineers to take features from problem definition to production.
• Make pragmatic engineering decisions based on product and user needs.
• Contribute to areas across Reporting & Collaboration, including data extraction, filtering, visualization, complex configuration, and emerging AI experiences.
• Use modern engineering tooling, with teams working across GCP, CircleCI, and AI development tools.
• Remain a senior individual contributor and be expected to ship.

On the people management part:

• People management and technical leadership are deliberately separated.
• Spend approximately 20% of your time on people management.
• Gradually take on direct reports after establishing yourself as an IC during your probation period.
• Coach engineers across different teams within the Reporting & Collaboration community.
• Support engineers with career progression, development, feedback, and performance.
• Run regular 1:1s and help engineers understand what they need to do to progress.
• Set clear expectations and provide actionable feedback.
• Handle difficult performance conversations when necessary and follow through with clear development plans.
• Partner with Tech Leads to understand how your reports are performing technically.
• Create an environment where strong engineers can continue to develop while doing their best work.
• Support engineers across multiple teams rather than owning a single engineering team.

Qualifications

• Significant professional software-engineering experience, with the technical depth expected of a senior engineer.
• Strong recent hands-on frontend engineering experience.
• Production experience with React, TypeScript, and/or JavaScript.
• Previous formal people-management experience.
• Experience owning areas such as coaching, career development, feedback, and performance management.
• Experience building complex product interfaces, ideally within B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or analytics.
• Experience solving frontend problems involving large datasets, visualization, filtering, configuration, performance, or complex workflows.
• A strong product mindset.
• Strong collaboration skills across Engineering, Product, and Design.
• The ability and desire to remain deeply hands-on in the code while managing people.
• Fluent in English; French is not required.

Requirements

• Autonomy expected of a senior IC: once you understand the problem, you can work with the team to move it forward.

Benefits

• 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.
• £90,000 - £140,000 a year.
