From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!

We’re looking for a Technical Learning Specialist to help upskill our support team in handling complex technical customer queries. As Figma continues to grow and evolve, this newly created role will be essential in developing and delivering training programs that empower Support Specialists to tackle technical issues with confidence and accuracy.

Your work will directly impact the ability to scale and enhance Figma’s support, driving measurable improvements in team performance and customer satisfaction.

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:

• Create and execute learning programs to empower Support Specialists to handle complex and technical customer queries.
• Develop technical training materials, including presentations, labs, documentation, videos, and interactive modules.
• Partner with internal knowledge management teams to document processes, product and feature updates, and a holistic enablement strategy to ensure Support Specialists are informed and ready to solve customer questions.
• Assess training needs and knowledge gaps through analysis of Support performance and assessment strategies.
• Analyze training effectiveness through business-focused metrics like speed to solve, knowledge attainment, and customer satisfaction.
• Work closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, and other organizations to align enablement strategies with business goals and drive customer success.

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

• 3-5 years of experience in a technical support or training role.
• Experience in authoring, delivering, and/or facilitating training on technical or SaaS products.
• The ability to prioritize competing requests to deliver results.
• The ability to manage and prioritize complex projects while providing clarity and vision to key stakeholders.
• Strong written communication skills, with the ability to break down complex ideas into easily understood concepts.

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

• Experience building and deploying training for a technical SaaS product.
• Experience using Figma products.
• Experience in fast-paced support environments.
• Exposure to working on a global scale.
• A unique assessment strategy to understand knowledge gaps and opportunities.
• Experience presenting high-quality training workshops to professional technical audiences.
