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.

WHAT YOU’LL DO AT FIGMA:

Lead, grow, and develop a high-performing team of 20+ across IT Operations, IT Engineering, and AI strategy, including managers

and senior ICs across each function

Own the strategy and execution of Figma's internal IT infrastructure, ensuring reliability, scalability, and security across

our global workforce and office environments

Partner with Figma's AI team to define and guide an internal AI enablement strategy, finding opportunities to embed AI-powered

tools and workflows across IT and the broader business

Establish and track KPIs across IT disciplines, using data to drive continuous improvement in system uptime, ticket resolution,

employee satisfaction, and infrastructure performance

Own IT vendor relationships, participate in contract negotiations and budget planning, ensuring the company has the right tools

to meet current needs and future growth

Collaborate cross-functionally with Security, Legal, People, and Finance to ensure IT systems meet compliance, privacy, and

regulatory requirements

Serve as an escalation point and executive sponsor for major incidents, infrastructure migrations, and large-scale IT

initiatives

WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU IF YOU HAVE:

10+ years of experience in IT, with at least 4–5 years in a senior leadership role running multiple teams or functions
Consistent track record of scaling IT Operations and IT Engineering organizations in a fast-growing technology company
Deep technical knowledge of enterprise infrastructure, SaaS tooling, endpoint management, and IT service management (ITSM)

frameworks

Experience partnering on or directly leading AI or automation initiatives within an IT or enterprise technology context

WHILE NOT REQUIRED, IT’S AN ADDED PLUS IF YOU ALSO HAVE:

Experience at a product-led, design, or SaaS company with a distributed or hybrid-first workforce
Experience in IT security or compliance domains such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or FedRAMP, and comfort partnering with Security

teams on audits and controls

Experience leading large scale change management initiatives, such as system migrations, tooling consolidations, or workforce

transitions at scale

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.

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! Some of the most consequential problems at Figma don't belong to any one team: how our business model evolves as software shifts to AI and consumption, how we price and package what we're still inventing, where the next layer of growth comes from. We're looking for an exceptional operator to own problems like these and drive them to decisions that reach the CEO, CPO, and CFO - and beyond. As the first Director hire on our Business Operations team, you'll start with the highest-stakes arena we have today — Figma's business model and monetization strategy (pricing, packaging, our AI credit and consumption models, and the shape of the model itself) — and build and lead the small, high-leverage team that owns it. But the through-line of this role isn't a domain; it's you: a broad, first-principles operator who brings structure to ambiguity, earns exec trust fast, and turns strategy into shipped outcomes. 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: * Take Figma's most ambiguous, highest-stakes business questions from "no one knows" to a decision we can act on — and own the outcome * Set the direction for how Figma monetizes the AI era: agents, consumption/usage-based billing, our APIs, and acquired businesses — with a real point of view on where the model is going, not just where it is * Build and lead a small, exceptional team; set the bar for structured thinking and exec-ready synthesis * Be the partner Product, Finance, Engineering, and GTM want in the room when the problem is hard * Bring a sharp, independent voice into company planning and our biggest capital-allocation calls WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU IF YOU HAVE: * You’re always the one handed the hardest, vaguest, most important problems * Pair a top-tier strategy foundation (management consulting, private equity, or investing) with operating experience at a high-growth software company (Product, Growth, Strategy & Ops, or BizOps) or a top-tier PE/VC firm * Have a track record of taking ambiguous, company-defining problems from zero structure to executive decision * Communicate with exec-level clarity and influence senior leaders without authority * Reason fluently about a P&L and a business model — strong business and financial instincts * Lead and develop people WHILE IT'S NOT REQUIRED, IT'S AN ADDED PLUS IF YOU ALSO HAVE: * Exposure to monetization, pricing & packaging, or business-model design — especially in the AI/consumption era * Hands-on financial modeling / SQL At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go.
