Description

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!

The Growth Platform team is on a mission to supercharge Figma’s growth by building a suite of platform products that will accelerate product and marketing teams in their user and revenue growth ambitions. Currently, the scope of this team includes Figma’s experimentation platform, localization framework, personalization framework, and our in-product messaging framework.

We are looking for an Engineering Manager to define and build the next generation of platform products that will unlock growth for Figma. A successful EM will partner closely with growth product and growth marketing teams to strategically identify new platform opportunities while continuing to ensure engineering excellence with the existing systems.

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, grow and support a diverse team of engineers responsible for Figma’s growth platform products and frameworks.
  • Partner closely with engineering and marketing leadership to identify opportunities and develop high leverage platforms that will enable product and marketing teams to accelerate growth efforts.
  • Work closely with all product engineering teams at Figma to build best in class frameworks that will drastically increase the success of their respective products and features.
  • Provide hands-on technical leadership to your teams and others that collaborate with your teams to ensure that systems are built for scale and quality.
  • Establish trust within and across teams by creating accountability and a positive work environment in partnership with other leaders in the organization.
  • Grow your career in an engaged and creative engineering community

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

  • 2+ years of experience managing and leading a high output engineering team.
  • Experience managing or working on product platform teams where you are building products that are leveraged by internal product and XFN teams.
  • Strong product intuition and XFN collaboration skills to identify and evangelize business/product gaps that can be solved through a platform product. 
  • Hands-on technical experience: you have built complex backend systems as an individual contributor, and can represent the technical details of work shipped by the team you’ve managed.
  • Demonstrated leadership skills in building a high-performing and highly engaged engineering team. Proven track record of motivating, mentoring, and guiding senior/staff engineers.

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

  • Previous experience managing or working on growth platform teams.
  • Domain expertise with experimentation and ML frameworks.

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.
