• Elevate the Product organization’s operations to accelerate decision-making and execution.
• Coach and develop PMs and managers across the organization.
• Represent Figma in the Design community and our growing user base.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

• 8+ years of experience leading Product teams.
• Domain experience collaborating with Designers.
• Experience working on products with significant technical complexity.
• Experience driving strategy for products with broad needs that affect a large number of other teams.
