The opportunity :

We are looking for a backend software engineer to join the team that is building Pigment’s own hybrid transactional and analytical processing engine capable of handling both large-scale aggregations and highly frequent transactions.

Alongside developing proprietary technology, we integrate state-of-the-art compute engines and storage layers to achieve exceptional performance and scalability.

We’re looking for a senior software engineer to tackle complex engineering problems in distributed systems and database optimization and some interesting performance and scalability challenges.

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 have a some experience in database execution engine (as an interested user or as a passionate builder)

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!).

A fluent level in English (French is not a must).

This may include verification of employment history, education, and, where legally permitted, criminal records. Any checks will be conducted lawfully, with candidate consent, and information will be treated confidentially.
