• Identify, develop, and document end-to-end equity process improvements
• Collaborate with Figma payroll and external consultants for accurate and timely equity transaction reporting
• Ensure documentation for SOX internal controls is complete and accurate
• Address employee inquiries about equity programs and provide education, ensuring exceptional service
• Generate reports for cross-functional partners and handle ad-hoc data requests

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

• 5+ years of experience in equity administration, ideally at both late-stage private and public companies
• Experience with Excel, G-Suite, reconciliation, and analytical skills
• High attention to detail and accuracy in managing complex data and transactions
• Self-starter with excellent organizational skills, capable of managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Understanding of equity tax reporting and withholding for a global workforce

While not required, it's a plus if you also have:

• Experience with Morgan Stanley at Work Shareworks
• Certified Equity Professional (CEP) designation
• Understanding of equity tax mobility

At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills.
