Role
Who you are
- More than knowledge of a specific cloud provider, language, or automation framework, we are looking for great engineering skills: the ability to translate product requirements into an elegant and simple architecture, and then make sure our product runs well on it
- 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
- Experience as a software engineer & DevOps / SRE
- Experience with a container orchestration platform (Kubernetes is a plus)
- Experience with a public cloud provider, GCP is a plus
- Proven experience in software developments with languages such as C#, Java, C++, Golang, Rust, JavaScript, Python, or Ruby (this list is not exhaustive)
- Experience with observability tools (e.g. Datadog, Prometheus, ELK, Jaeger...)
- Great team spirit with a problem-solving attitude
- A good dose of humility and the willingness to grow (no matter your seniority!)
- Fluency in English
What the job involves
- We are looking for a Senior SRE profile who will design and implement the Pigment infrastructure for tomorrow
- Define and build the infrastructure needed to answer our performance challenges, automate it, and make it scalable. In particular, ensure that the infrastructure scales in and out according to the platform usage
- Secure high availability and redundancy of the Pigment platform
- Ensure that the platform’s performance and correctness are monitored accordingly, spread observability best practices across the engineering team
- Participate in incident response
- Accompany Pigment geographical expansion as the company grows and we sign clients overseas
- Work with our security team on the implementation of their roadmap when related to infrastructure and development pipelines (code repository, credentials management, ...)
- Continuously chase inefficiencies within our development practices and pipelines. Seek improvement and automation wherever possible
- Drive change across the software engineering team
- In addition to SRE responsibilities, we expect you to contribute to software development activities
- We believe SRE engineers should collaborate closely with software engineers, fostering a shared understanding of day-to-day challenges, rather than operating in separate teams. Last but not least, you will not be alone! You will be part of an SRE 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 infrastructure, backend, and the frontend
Our take
In an ever-changing world, demand for more effective and accessible planning tools is rising. Pigment is meeting this demand with its business planning platform.
Pigment’s platform is disrupting a market that has long been dominated by generic spreadsheet programs like Excel. Its primary focus lies on forecasting and planning, enabling businesses to model and test outcomes. This is designed to improve the efficacy and reliability of decision making.
Taking on incumbents such as Excel, which boasts around one billion users, is no easy feat. However, Pigment’s innovative forecasting tools, ease-of-use and significant funding should give it a fighting chance in a market that is continuing to make space for disruptors. They have attracted impressive clients including Figma, PayFit, and Gong.
