If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!

The mission of the Engineering TPM team is to drive Figma's most important cross-company engineering efforts, and we are looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to partner with our Infrastructure team. The TPM provides oversight of the most important efforts that require coordinated technical execution across the Org to succeed. This is a role focused on enabling Figma's infrastructure teams to scale, improve performance, and deliver on critical projects. These large-scale efforts will involve collaboration across numerous backend, infrastructure, and security teams and cross-functional stakeholders, prioritization, decision-making, tracking execution, and driving operational excellence. We're looking for someone that can work in a TPM greenspace environment and is passionate about people, technology, and program management. Progress over process is our mantra.

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 the execution, coordination, and risk management of Figma's infrastructure projects, ensuring seamless integration with minimal performance impact
• Drive key infrastructure initiatives, including reliability, storage, distributed systems, cloud-native performance improvements, and compliance programs (e.g., encryption key management, FedRAMP, SOC 2)
• Partner closely with engineering, security, compliance, and legal teams to ensure alignment and on-time delivery
• Track program milestones and ensure seamless delivery across multiple infrastructure teams, including data, caching, observability, and security engineering
• Provide regular updates to executive leadership, external partners, and internal teams on the status of infrastructure programs, including risks, blockers, and dependencies
• Develop and drive best practices in infrastructure program management, improving visibility into progress, risks, and technical dependencies
• Facilitate large-scale testing and rollout strategies for critical infrastructure changes to minimize downtime and ensure high system reliability
• Translate technical constraints and risks into executive-level communications for senior leadership and external stakeholders
