We’re looking for a design manager to lead two teams within our Teamwork product pillar, focusing on Content (search and wayfinding in Figma) and Administration (billing, security, and administering Figma teams). We’re hoping to find an exceptional craftsperson who can be newer to people management but is excited to push the bar for quality and execution on their teams, and isn’t afraid to get into the weeds and get their hands dirty. This is an exciting opportunity to own some bigger surfaces at Figma (like the File Browser) and lead a very talented group of designers.
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:
Hire and manage a group of world-class designers of all experience levels
Upskill your team, particularly in the areas of interaction design and prototyping
Partner with Product and Engineering leads in this area to improve team processes and execution and coach individual teams through setting roadmap and strategy
Develop a perspective on your teams’ product areas and successfully advocate for it across the organization
Run and improve team processes like critiques and sprints
Advance your own skills at people management in a supportive and growth-oriented environment
Some projects you could work on:
Developing new programs to ensure quality across your teams
Partnering with pillar leads to develop an overall pillar vision and mission
Driving forward product improvements in key surface areas (like search)
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
2+ years of people management experience
Exceptional skills as a craftsperson and the ability to teach others
Strong in strategic thinking and communication; someone who can help influence teams
We love people who like to take risks with new and interesting methodologies and ideas; who are not always satisfied with the status quo and always eager to improve both themselves and others.
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.
