Figma is growing our team of passionate creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all. Figma's platform helps teams bring ideas to life-whether you're brainstorming, creating a prototype, translating designs into code, or iterating with AI. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!

We're looking for a Developer Advocate to join our AMER Advocacy team, based in San Francisco. This advocate will support content creation, and community building through field events & livestreams, go-to-market motions, product initiatives, and 1:1 customer engagements with our sales team. Advocates at Figma are practitioners first - people who understand the complexity of modern product development firsthand and can advocate for user needs internally.

This is a hands-on role that blends technical depth, communication, and strong product intuition. You'll write production-quality code, build demos and tools, and directly support developers and technical teams. You'll also operate as a connective layer across functions - helping translate between customer needs, product decisions, and go-to-market execution.

This role is available in the SF / Bay Area and is remote-friendly. You should be able to commute to the San Francisco office on a regular basis when needed. This role would require travel up to 25% of the time.
What you'll do at Figma:

      • Partner deeply with Sales and GTM: Join customer engagements, unblock technical teams, and support high-impact deals involving Dev Mode, design systems, and the Figma API.
      • Own regional technical presence: Play a leading role across AMER field events, activations, and key moments, representing Figma to developer audiences.
      • Build real things: Create production-quality demos, prototypes, and tools that reflect how modern teams actually build, not just toy examples.
      • Create scalable technical content: Author guides, code samples, and technical narratives that help developers adopt Figma in real workflows.
      • Influence product direction: Bring structured, high-signal feedback from customers and the community into Product. Help shape features before and after launch.
      • Bridge design and development: Help teams operationalize workflows across design systems, tokens, and developer tooling.
We'd love to hear from you if you:
  • 8+ years of experience writing production code, with JavaScript/TypeScript and React; knowledge of Native languages is a nice to have.
  • Are an excellent storyteller and communicator; you can tailor complex concepts to a variety of audiences
  • Have experience working alongside designers or building tools that support design systems.
  • Have strong product instincts; you understand not just how to build, but what to build and why.
  • Are confident speaking publicly and able to engage large audiences can operate autonomously and love working cross-functionally across many different teams.
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.
