Pigment is a powerful planning and forecasting platform that enables high-growth companies to make better decisions.

We build the next-generation planning platform that combines the power of sophisticated planning tools with the familiarity of spreadsheets.

Pigment provides easy-to-use, yet fully customizable planning applications with an exceptional user interface and out-of-the-box data connectors.

If you're curious about the kind of challenges our engineering team tackles, our culture and our organization, we invite you to explore our Tech Blog!

 

Pigment allows a large number of users to participate in the financial planning of the company. To enable them to collaborate, it is necessary to automate certain activities, such as assigning tasks to collaborators or sending them notifications when data is ready to be reviewed. This needs to be done:

by offering a very intuitive configuration

by using Pigment's underlying technical concepts (data model...),

without impacting the performance of the interface (loading time...)

 

Pigment is a complex application but we want to make it as accessible as possible to our end users. This requires providing them with turnkey functionalities, such as being able to configure their collaborators' access themselves or to easily reuse parts of Pigment for their own use, via a "store", in order to be autonomous in their implementation of their use cases. The implementation of this system consists of:

the implementation of relevant functional paths

with a very intuitive interface and ergonomics

aiming at maximum productivity gains for the users

 

The attractiveness of Pigment is largely based on the quality of its user experience. A team of designers is working on its continuous improvement. In particular, data visualization is a central aspect of Pigment and is especially important for executive roles. Our data visualization system will therefore evolve:

To add more and more innovative visualizations

To improve the UX of existing graphs and allow full flexibility in their configuration

This while making sure to respect the best practices in terms of development, performance, and scalability of our code

 

The Pigment platform allows our clients to manipulate their data in a much simpler and more efficient way than with software like Excel. They need to be able to import data from their internal management software, for example from sales, payroll, or human resources. These systems are multiple and require Pigment to adapt, generating numerous projects:

Integration of "native" data connectors to cover the maximum of the market

Provision of APIs allowing our customers to develop their own integrations

 

Data export functionalities and APIs for manipulation in a spreadsheet or insertion directly as images in presentations

Here is an overview of the tools and languages we use. More than knowledge of a specific language or framework, we are looking for good software engineering skills: the ability to translate functional requirements into a simple and elegant design and then deliver the code. 

You will be expected to quickly gain skills in these technologies:

C# on .Net Core Linux, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Google Cloud Platform, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, RabbitMQ and CircleCI.

Possibility to work partially remotely

Office in the heart of Paris

Possibility to choose your working environment (hardware / OS)

A competitive remuneration package 

Possibility to continue to progress within the team after your internship

The opportunity to join a very experienced team (e.g. Criteo, Facebook, Anaplan, Datadog, Payfit, Aircall, Google, and more...)
