Data Engineer - Figma : Job Details

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 it with us!

We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer to partner with our Data Science and Data Infrastructure teams to own and scale our data pipelines. You'll work closely with stakeholders across business teams including sales, marketing, and finance to ensure that the data they need arrives promptly and reliably. You'll play an integral role in building metrics and self-serve reporting capabilities to unlock Figma's next phase of growth.

This is a great role for an individual who is passionate about working with data and data systems, and who loves solving problems. You'll have a good sense for when to build fast, scrappy solutions to unblock key stakeholders versus when to push back or bring in outside services. The ideal candidate will be a great communicator, able to coordinate across multiple teams, and take pride in building end-to-end projects.

What you'll do at Figma:

Own, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines that connect various cloud data sources.

Develop a deep understanding of Figma's core data models and optimize data pipelines for scale.

Partner with Data Science and Data Infrastructure teams to build trusted, well-understood foundational data sets that enable self-service.

Work with cross-functional stakeholders to derive requirements, architect shared datasets, and explain complex problems clearly.

Establish best practices for developing specialized data sets for analytics and modeling.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

• 4+ years in a relevant field
• Fluency with SQL and Python
• Familiarity with Snowflake, dbt, Dagster, and ETL/reverse ETL tools
• Excellent judgment and problem-solving skills
• A self-starting mindset with strong communication and collaboration skills

While not required, it's a plus if you also have:

• Knowledge of data modeling methodologies for robust data architecture
• Experience with business systems like Salesforce, Customer IO, Stripe, NetSuite

At Figma, we believe in growing as you go. We encourage curious, smart people to apply even if their experience doesn't align perfectly with the listed points—perhaps you're just the right fit for this or other roles.
