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.

We're hiring an Engineering Manager who wants to spend 80% of their time writing code, not attending management meetings.

About the role Are you an experienced Software Engineer who loves writing code, solving complex technical problems and helping other engineers become better at what they do? At Pigment, our Engineering Managers are engineers first. Unlike traditional Engineering Manager positions, this role is designed for someone who wants to remain deeply involved in building software while taking on meaningful people-management responsibilities. You'll spend approximately 80% of your time designing, coding and shipping production features, with the remaining 20% dedicated to coaching engineers, running regular 1:1s, providing feedback and supporting their development. We're particularly interested in Senior Software Engineers who have naturally taken on coaching, mentoring or technical leadership responsibilities and are ready to develop further as people managers. You don't necessarily need to have held an Engineering Manager title before. What matters most is your technical ability, your experience helping others grow and your motivation to combine engineering with people leadership. You'll join Pigment's Reporting & Collaboration community, building sophisticated frontend experiences that help customers interact with complex data, configure workflows and make better business decisions.

We conduct background checks as part of our hiring process, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations in the countries where we operate. This may include verification of employment history, education, and, where legally permitted, criminal records. Any checks will be conducted lawfully prior to formal employment contracts being signed, with candidate consent, and information will be treated confidentially.
