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, create, test, and ship better designs, together. From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!
We are looking for a PM to explore a new product opportunity related to the core Figma product. As the PM leading this area, you will be responsible for working with the research team to understand the gaps in how people use our product today. You will flesh out and refine the overall product hypothesis, and validate this hypothesis with customers. You will also be responsible for iterating on the implementation until we have a product that customers truly love.
You will become an expert in how designers work today, as well as some of the unaddressed needs of their existing workflows, and you will bring that learning back to the team. You will advocate for big changes and additions to Figma’s core product that have the potential to change how the design industry works in the future.
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:
- Along with leadership, help develop and build alignment around a product strategy for a new product opportunity.
- Along with the research team, you will do many rounds of in-depth customer research to validate and refine the product idea.
- Work with design to determine how to best integrate this product idea into the core Figma offering.
- Help your team do all the things you’d expect from a PM org, like driving planning and prioritization, defining and tracking key metrics, collaborating on marketing, messaging, positioning, and go-to-market plans
We’d love to hear from you if you:
- Have experience with the ambiguity associated with 0 to 1 projects.
- Can take customer learnings and turn them into a cohesive product vision and drive internal alignment.
- Can think about systems-oriented solutions to complex authoring problems.
- Have deep user empathy and are able to understand complex product spaces.
- Have a design background, or if you have a love of design in general.
- Love creating the environment for a team happy, successful team.
- Are unafraid to do whatever it takes to make your team successful, whether that’s sweating the small details, doing IC work, or going back and forth with execs to find the right way forward.
- Have an affinity for the fast-paced, changing environment of a start-up, a sense of humor and get-it-done personality
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.
