Manager, Product Design
at Figma
Figma is growing our team of passionate creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all. Figma’s platform helps teams bring ideas to life—whether you're brainstorming, creating a prototype, translating designs into code, or iterating with AI. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!
We’re looking for technically-minded design leaders who are excited to shape how teams build together. At Figma, design isn’t just how something looks - it’s how it works, how it feels, and how it scales. Our designers are systems thinkers, prototypers, storytellers, and craftspeople who care deeply about quality and collaboration. In this role, you’ll lead a team of world-class designers who are inventing new ways for people to design and build products together.
These roles will stretch you as a design leader and partner to Product and Engineering. You'll work with exceptional builders, who bring deep technical expertise and high craft, to define vision in open, ambiguous spaces, shape how emerging technologies meet real user needs, and build tools that let teams create at unprecedented scale, speed and craft.
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:
Manage and hire a group of world-class designers
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, reviews, and design sprints
Stay in the work, both managing people and helping oversee strategy and execution hands-on
Thrive in fast-paced, experimental environments where working on novel problems is the norm
Set and maintain a high quality bar through feedback, direction, and coaching
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
3+ years of design management experience with track record of building strong, resilient, team culture and developing designers across skill levels
A proven track record of collaboration with cross-functional teams to solve complex design challenges
Clear hands-on expertise with Figma’s tools, and a strong ability to mentor and guide design teams
Experience influencing teams through strategic thinking, storytelling, and clear communication
Familiarity with AI developments, LLMs, code generation, and generative design tools
Comfort with uncertainty, thriving in fast-moving, ambiguous environments where priorities can shift quickly as technology emerges
While it’s not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:
Experience working on early stage or zero-to-one projects, AI/ML-powered products or creative tooling, and seeing them through shipping
