Figma
We're seeking a lead UX writer/content designer for Dev Tools at Figma, focusing on developer experience and collaboration between design and production. The role involves crafting clear storytelling, creating user experiences, and partnering with cross-functional teams. With 5+ years of experience in UX content or design, you'll contribute to product strategy and oversee language across a broad product suite. You'll work independently to explore information architecture and mental models, and craft simple language solutions to complex user problems. Figma values growth and encourages applicants from diverse backgrounds to apply.
We’re looking for a lead UX writer/content designer for Dev Tools—the team making it possible to build the ideas designed in Figma. In this role, you’ll focus on the developer experience inside and outside of Figma products, and you’ll explore how we can continue to close the gaps between design and production.
Dev Mode—our first major developer product—is still in its infancy, and it’s just the beginning of Figma’s ambitions in this space. If you have an eye for simplicity and craft, curiosity for how product teams work together, and an appreciation for twisty technical challenges, you can help us define the future of design ↔ developer collaboration.
This is a full time role that can be held in our New York hub or remotely on the East Coast.
Contribute to overall product strategy around Figma’s developer experience.
Help deliver and refine clear storytelling around product needs and opportunities.
Work cross-functionally with product management, engineering, design, writing, and research peers.
Create, collaborate, and iterate on the user experience—content, flows, and prototypes.
Partner with design to ship high-quality product experiences and improvements.
Oversee language across a broad product suite, building taxonomies, glossaries, and other artifacts in support.
5+ years of experience crafting UX, whether in content, design, or engineering.
A proven understanding of the English written language and its role in crafting high-quality UX.
A strong understanding and familiarity with common coding concepts and languages.
An eye/ear for cohesive, intuitive storytelling, and for high-quality, well-crafted design.
Experience working independently to explore information architecture, mental models, and content.
Demonstrated ability to craft simple language solutions to highly complex user problems.
Experience as a software engineer, design engineer, or other developer role.
Experience as a UX designer, creative technologist, or other design-centric role.
A generative spirit, and excitement about coming up with novel, simple solutions and language.
A track record of leading 0-to-1 initiatives.
At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills. If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
