Born in Port-Gentil, Tandjigora was a player of the national football school located in his hometown.[2] On 9 July 2010, he became the first player from the academy to sign a professional contract with a European club after signing a one-year contract with Metz.[3][4]

He played in 21 matches and scored two goals as the reserve team of Metz were crowned champions of the league finishing with 107 points.[5] After the season, Tandjigora signed his first professional contract and was, subsequently, promoted to the senior team and assigned the number 12 shirt by new manager Dominique Bijotat. He made his professional debut on 30 July 2010 in a Coupe de la Ligue match against Clermont. Tandjigora started the match and played 76 minutes in a 3–1 defeat.[6] He made his league debut a week later in a 2–0 defeat to Évian.[7]

Tandjigora was formerly a Gabonese youth international having earned caps with the nation's under-20 team in qualification for the 2009 African Youth Championship.
