Strategic Finance - Finance Systems & Automation
The Strategic Finance team is passionate about solving some of Figma’s most pressing business issues. The team is responsible for owning the company's budget, driving annual and quarterly planning processes, allocating and deploying resources efficiently, performing financial analyses, and partnering with teams across the company.
In this role, you’ll play a critical part in building and evolving the systems that power Figma’s planning and reporting processes — including the evolution and management of Pigment as our central planning platform. You’ll combine financial and technical competence to build models that help teams plan more effectively, forecast more accurately, and make better decisions.
This role is ideal for someone who is analytical and strategic, systems-minded, and passionate about employing AI and automation to improve financial planning. You’ll work cross-functionally, see into every facet of the business, and have a direct impact on how Figma scales its financial operations.
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:
Implement and deliver key initiatives from our systems roadmap, collaborating closely with our existing systems team and cross-functional partners to bring projects from concept to completion
Partner with Strategic Finance, Data Science, and Business Systems to improve data architecture, integrations, and governance that strengthen our financial reporting and forecasting
Lead monthly data imports, validations, and actuals loading to ensure accuracy and consistency across planning applications
Develop dashboards and reporting ecosystems that surface key business insights, drive end-user adoption, and support planning processes
Train and enable the team through development of training materials, office hours, and enablement resources that drive adoption, confidence, and procedures across the team
Experiment with AI solutions to automate workflows, improve accuracy, and elevate the speed and impact of Strategic Finance operations
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
3+ years of experience in financial systems, FP&A, or data-focused roles, ideally in a SaaS or high-growth environment
Proven expertise building and maintaining financial planning tools such as Pigment, Anaplan, or Adaptive — including model design, formula writing, and system configuration
Strong technical foundations in SQL or similar languages, with a solid understanding of data flows, integrations, and governance across finance systems
Track record of translating business needs into scalable system solutions, from requirements gathering through testing and rollout
While not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:
Experience working with Pigment specifically; driven implementations and integrations in a high-growth SaaS environment
Familiarity with data visualization tools like Sigma, Hex, or Tableau to support reporting and insights
Understanding of FP&A processes, SaaS metrics, and financial modeling principles
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.
