  • Guide the team in planning and executing a technical roadmap, using the latest Apple technologies (Swift and SwiftUI); and the latest Android technologies (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, coroutines and flows) that will provide the foundation for future feature development with great performance.  
  • Establish trust within and across teams by creating accountability and a positive work environment in partnership with other leaders in the organization.
  • Grow your career in an engaged and creative engineering community
  • Figma is committed to building an inclusive and diverse team and culture. We expect all of our leaders to play a role in helping to build and drive these initiatives through hiring, community events, and other programs in partnership with teams across all of Figma.
