The Opportunity

We are looking for Senior software engineers with front-end expertise who can also be people managers of other software engineers, for a share of their time (up to 50%).

On the engineering part:

• Design and implement high-performance, scalable, and responsive user interfaces.
• Optimize frontend performance to ensure smooth and efficient user experiences.
• Tackle real-time challenges, enabling concurrent editing resilient to network disruptions, based on a single source of truth managed through efficient caching.
• Translate functional requirements into elegant and simple designs, delivering high-quality code.
• Understand and address the product and customer needs, suggesting innovative ideas to deliver maximum value to end users.
• 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.

On the people management part, here is what it entails:

• Coach up to six direct reports, providing guidance and support (usually every two weeks).
• Define expectations, collect and deliver feedback, and build career development plans using our skill leveling matrix.
• Participate in performance-related decisions with other managers, including proposing and calibrating salary raises and handling under-performance remediation.
• (Optional) Lead ad hoc projects to structure engineering efforts, such as organizing technical demos, leading All Hands meetings, or evolving our skill leveling matrix.
• In the Pigment engineering team, people managers do not have the responsibility of a particular technical domain, as this is the role of technical leads: this way, we make sure career decisions and technical choices are independent of one another.
