Product Manager, AI

Job Description:

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 an experienced Product Manager to help lead AI research and product development efforts. In this role, you’ll be focused on the AI experiences inside and outside of Figma. Your work will help raise the ceiling of what’s possible for designers and lower the floor of who can design using AI. You’ll collaborate closely with a cutting edge AI Research team, developing new models to enable step change experiences. You’ll also be working with Product and Design teams to envision how interacting with these models will look and feel inside the product.

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:

• Build and maintain a strong understanding of AI technology in the design space - its constraints, strengths and weaknesses in a fast evolving environment
• Understand workflows and use cases for Designers inside of Figma
• Define a vision and roadmap for AI driven user experiences, motivating model research and guiding product development with clear requirements
• Partner with a wide range of cross-functional partners across Product, Design, Engineering, Research and Data Science to prioritize model improvements across a range of features
• Partner with Engineering to set strategy and priorities for teams and projects

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

• 3+ years of product management experience
• Proven track record shipping and iterating on AI features that drive impact
• Experience working in a fast-paced, scrappy environment

While not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:

• Experience with AI model training, evaluation and iteration
• Ability to communicate clearly at different altitudes, including driving alignment with senior stakeholders
• An affinity for the fast-paced, changing environment of a start-up, a sense of humor and get-it-done personality
• Experience scaling AI solutions across multiple internal teams through frameworks and best practices
• Partnering with academic institutes and other research organizations

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.
