Job Description

As a Web Developer at Figma, you will play a vital role in building and maintaining our web platform. You'll be responsible for working with a multi-functional team of designers, marketers, data scientists, and engineers to develop and maintain Figma's marketing site, designsystems.com, and event sites. You will be working with a variety of modern web technologies including React, NextJS, Gatsby, Typescript, GraphQL, headless CMS (Sanity/Contentful) and other NodeJS based frameworks. Your role will also include collaborating on OKR planning, roadmapping, onboarding new team members, and leading vendor relationships.

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:

  • Be a core contributor to the back-end and front-end development, optimization, and infrastructure of the Figma marketing website

  • Collaborate closely with Engineering, Growth, Brand, and SEO teams to ensure reliable, performant, accessible, and secure sites

  • Design and implement scalable web architecture and systems in partnership with our Security and Infrastructure Engineering teams

  • Act as a bridge between the marketing web team and our security and infrastructure groups — surfacing needs, sharing context, and facilitating cross-functional improvements through implementation and thorough documentation

  • Lead projects end-to-end—maintaining timelines, stakeholder expectations, ticket triaging, and regularly presenting with teammates and leadership

  • Participate in code reviews and provide feedback to other engineers on the team

  • Mentor team members, support new hires during onboarding, and provide technical guidance to technical and non-technical collaborators

  • Create and maintain comprehensive testing strategies and make recommendations for the latest web technologies and improvements

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

  • 5+ years of development experience using React, Node.js HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Typescript

  • 3+ years of development experience in frameworks (NextJS, Gatsby), and headless content management systems (Sanity, Contentful)

  • Experience with QA and testing, server rendered and statically generated sites

  • Understanding of site security, database operation/management, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD strategy and deployment processes

  • Experience with caching and web optimization techniques while using Agile development methodologies

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

  • Demonstrable understanding of conversion rate optimization standard methodologies, using A/B testing to achieve results

  • Experience working on SEO-driven projects, localization, performance optimization & experimentation

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.
