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!
Figma's IT organization is the backbone that keeps our global workforce connected, productive, and secure. As we scale, we're looking for a Director of IT to lead and grow three critical functions: IT Operations, IT Engineering, and AI Enablement. This leader will be responsible for ensuring that our infrastructure and internal tooling can scale with Figma's growth, while also helping shape how AI technologies are adopted across the company.
The team strives to enable our fellow figmates to do their best work by giving them super powers through exceptional technology experiences, and this role will be at the center of that mission. You'll have a direct seat at the table with senior leadership across Security, People, Finance, Legal, Workplace, and Product to build systems and experiences that empower every Figma employee. This role sits at an exciting intersection with equal parts technical depth, organizational leadership, and forward-looking strategy. You'll own a critical function, drive measurable impact across the entire company, and have the executive visibility to match
You'll inherit a strong foundation and have the mandate to take it to the next level, but what makes this role at this time especially exciting is AI. The way IT operates is being fundamentally reimagined, and Figma is leaning in. This role isn't just about keeping the lights on, it's about defining what AI-enabled IT looks like at a design-forward, fast-moving company. You'll have the mandate and the runway to set the strategy, build the playbook, and lead Figma into a new era of intelligent operations. If you've been waiting for the right stage to do the most consequential work of your career, this is it!
This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
