The posting, as Figma wrote it
Figma is growing our team of passionate creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all. Figma’s platform helps teams bring ideas to life—whether you're brainstorming, creating a prototype, translating designs into code, or iterating with AI. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!
We're looking for an experienced, customer-centric product leader to drive the company forward — supporting Figma's multi-product platform experience by ensuring the user experience is clear, coherent, and high craft. This group impacts how every customer feels about Figma, our adoption and retention metrics, and collaboration rates. You will tackle complex core product and platform challenges with real revenue implications and set strategies for Figma's product experiences across groups, impacting the way millions of people design and build together every day.
This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
What you'll do at Figma
- Lead teams that own shared user experiences across the Figma product suite, including platform coherence, multiplayer, collaborative experiences, and the internal design system (Figma Pattern Library)
- Set vision, strategy, and goals for workflows and interoperability at Figma. Dive into details to drive decisions forward. Set the standard for leadership that works across boundaries and for high-quality PM craft
- Work closely with cross-functional partners in engineering, data, and design to drive inspiring outcomes across teams within this group and across the company
- Hire, coach, and develop a senior bench of PMs across the group
We'd love to hear from you if you have
- Demonstrated ability to drive challenging, sweeping changes across groups
- Excellent cross-functional collaboration & communication
- Deep user empathy, appetite for complexity and a drive for simplicity
- A track record of setting strategy and executing on major user-facing initiatives in environments with scale, ambiguity, and complexity (both technical and product)
- 5+ years managing PMs, experience coaching a senior bench of PMs, and fostering collaborative, high-performance, joyful team environments
- Strong systems thinking and UX judgment, with a demonstrated ability to set pace and operate with high agency
While it's not required, it's an added plus if you also have:
- Experience working on major cross-app overhauls and designs systems for a multi-product company
