Figma is growing our team of passionate people on a mission to make design accessible to all. Born on the Web, Figma helps entire product teams brainstorm, design and build better products — from start to finish. Whether it’s consolidating tools, simplifying workflows, or collaborating across teams and time zones, Figma makes the design process faster, more efficient, and fun while keeping everyone on the same page. From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!
The Figma Research team is seeking a dynamic and experienced Researcher to join our Rapid Research program. This role is integral to our mission of connecting teams with customers throughout the development process, enabling confident iteration with a profound understanding of user impacts. As a Rapid Researcher at Figma, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our products by delivering actionable insights and recommendations that drive strategic decisions.
You have deep expertise in a variety of research methods, but you don't hold those methods precious. You can flexibly apply any tool in an unconstrained way to drive impact for the business. You'll work closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to integrate user feedback into the product lifecycle, ensuring that our solutions meet and exceed user expectations. In this role, building relationships quickly will be key to your success.
At Figma, we believe your role as a researcher is to bring your point of view to the table—not simply to regurgitate observations and insights. This is a unique opportunity to join a team that values direct dialogue with our user communities, fostering a strong, human-centered approach to product development. If you're passionate about advancing your research discipline and making a significant impact, Figma is the place for you to do the best work of your career.
This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.
