Job description

Product Manager, Design Tools and Product Foundations

Figma is growing our team of passionate people on a mission to make design accessible to all. Born on the Web, Figma helps entire product teams brainstorm, design and build better products — from start to finish. Whether it’s consolidating tools, simplifying workflows, or collaborating across teams and time zones, Figma makes the design process faster, more efficient, and fun while keeping everyone on the same page. From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!

Figma Product Managers are highly collaborative self-starters who push their teams to build amazing experiences for all our users. We have a diverse range of experiences and expertise and love learning from each other. Across all product areas, successful Figma PMs thrive on solving hard problems, considering every detail, and achieving ambitious goals. If this sounds like you, come join us!

We are hiring PMs across our pillars to support the development of Figma's multiproduct suite and Design offering in particular.

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:

• Define and drive the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for your area in alignment with company goals and user needs
• Lead the full product lifecycle from discovery through launch, balancing technical feasibility, design excellence, and business impact
• Collaborate deeply with Design, Engineering, and Product Leadership on both strategy and execution
• Prioritize opportunities based on user insights, data, and business objectives, adapting quickly to evolving needs and signals
• Conduct market and competitive analysis to inform product positioning and identify areas for differentiation and growth
• Apply emerging technologies (e.g. LLMs) where they can meaningfully improve user experience and outcomes

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

• Experience leading significant strategic initiatives on highly complex, ambiguous, and scaled products
• 6+ years of experience as a full-time Product Manager
• Experience shipping high-quality software that drove efficiency for users and business results for your company
• Experience performing customer research to understand your customers and uncover insights

While it’s not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:

• Experience with redesigns, information architecture, and content hierarchy
• Experience building in multi-product environments
• Design tooling expertise or experience as a Designer
• Experience shipping mobile and desktop products

We are hiring for several roles, and these points represent some of the spikes we are looking for. We do not expect every candidate to have all of these qualities.

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. If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
