Video Strategist

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'd love to hear from you if you have:

• 10+ years across video, brand storytelling, editorial, content strategy, or production leadership, including several years leading a video function or team
• A track record creating and running recurring video franchises that outlasted a single season and grew an audience
• Experience owning a production model end to end: the in-house versus agency versus creator call, a real budget, and the partner relationships behind it
• People leadership. You have hired, developed, and given hard feedback to producers, editors, or an external bench
• Fluency across the format spectrum, from social-first short-form to long-form storytelling, launch films, and customer narratives, with clear opinions on what each format is good for
• The ability to set a creative bar for work made by people who do not report to you, and to hold it without becoming the bottleneck
• Comfort as the video voice in rooms with senior stakeholders, including the judgment to disagree productively and the measurement literacy to defend your decisions

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

• Hands-on editing or motion graphics ability. We are not hiring you to sit on a timeline, but craft fluency sharpens judgment and helps you move fast
• Experience with live event and conference content at scale
• Familiarity with music licensing, talent releases, and usage rights at volume
• Experience building creator and influencer partnerships
• Experience scaling video inside a company going through rapid growth or a brand evolution
