As Figma’s customer base continues to expand and diversify, and new technological advancements in AI and generative design emerge, the opportunity for AI experience engineering is greater than ever. You’ll collaborate closely with a cutting edge AI Research team and your work will help raise the ceiling of what’s possible for designers and lower the floor of who can design. We are seeking an accomplished and experienced AI Product Engineer who has built generative AI products to join our team and lead our AI efforts from inception to implementation. Join us in molding the future of AI at Figma!
 
This is a full-time role that can be undertaken from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
 
What you'll do at Figma:
  • Lead the development of early-phase AI systems to enhance user experience and develop systems to measure and improve AI performance and relevance
  • Direct the future of AI at Figma in collaboration with cross-functional teams of innovative software engineers, product managers, and data scientists
  • Break down open-ended AI problems into engineering strategies utilizing machine learning, data analysis, and experimental design
  • Provide mentorship and promote best practices in data and AI while cultivating a collaborative and inclusive team culture
  • Contribute to the growth of the team by improving the hiring process and recruiting outstanding AI talent
 
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
  • 5+ years of experience, with 1 or more years of developing generative AI products
  • Comfort in prototyping and pathfinding new opportunities that led to successful 0→1 projects
  • Proven experience implementing the full lifecycle of an early-phase AI development, from ideating on which models to use through productionizing and maintaining them
  • Experience in developing deep product and business knowledge to connect abstract modeling and analysis tasks with business value
  • A growth mindset and experience investing in the learning, development, belonging, and impact of your peers, ex. mentoring/aligning senior engineers across organizations
 
While it’s not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:
  • Demonstrated expertise in AI indexing, retrieval systems, personalization, and/or natural language processing
  • Proven track record of planning a multi-year roadmap in which shorter-term projects ladder up to the long-term vision
  • A relevant advanced degree (Masters or PhD) in Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Statistics, or a related field
