Product Designer, CMS

Figma is growing its team of creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all.

We're looking for product designers who are excited to shape how teams build together. As a product designer at Figma, you'll turn ambiguity into clarity, push the product forward with engineers, PMs, and researchers, and help invent new ways for people to design and build products together.

Responsibilities

• Design and ship end-to-end experiences that help organize, manage, and deliver content across Figma's products, as part of the Content Management Systems team
• Partner closely with engineering to shape platform capabilities and technical infrastructure that support CMS and open-source initiatives
• Translate technically complex systems into intuitive, elegant user experiences
• Prototype early and often to explore ideas, validate concepts, and communicate nuanced interaction and technical decisions
• Contribute to product strategy and long-term vision by bringing together customer insights, product thinking, and technical understanding
• Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, researchers, and designers throughout the product development process
• Help raise the quality bar across the organization through thoughtful feedback, design critiques, and mentorship

Requirements

• Exceptional product design craft with strong visual and interaction skills, especially in complex software where systems thinking matters as much as any individual screen
• Code is part of your design process, not something you wait to hand off
• Demonstrated ability to move fast, forming a point of view, testing it, and adjusting course without waiting for complete information
• Ability to define a clear product and design vision in ambiguous spaces, using customer insights, qualitative research, and product data to guide decisions
• Track record of independently driving design from discovery through launch, balancing user needs, technical constraints, and business goals

Nice to Have

• Experience building and shipping software through coding, AI-assisted development, or other technical approaches
• Background designing content management systems, asset management platforms, or foundational platform products
• Familiarity designing developer tools, APIs, SDKs, or other highly technical product experiences
• Contributions to or designing for open-source software

Benefits

• Competitive package of additional benefits, including health, dental, and vision coverage
• Retirement benefits with company contributions
• Parental leave and reproductive or family planning support
• Mental health and wellness benefits
• Paid time off
• Company recharge days
