This team develops the application primitives used by backend engineers across the company, including our data access frameworks, asynchronous jobs platform, developer tools, and more. Application Platform also stewards the core architecture of our backend codebase, with an emphasis on scaling development velocity to our fast-growing engineering team, by defining best practices used across the company and enabling teams to decouple their product verticals from each other. We are looking for experienced engineers to join the team and enable Figma to create more world-class design and collaboration products!

They’ve implemented and maintained robust & reliable distributed systems that form the backbone of core product functionality. Most importantly, they love building for builders.

Build and optimize foundational infrastructure for common use cases such as running experiments and engaging users. Evangelize best practices throughout the engineering team to keep code quality high. Partner with engineering leadership to set strategy and priorities for the team and its projects. Establish trust within and across teams by creating accountability and a positive work environment in partnership with others in the organization. Grow your career in an engaged and creative engineering community. We’d love to hear from you if you have: 6+ years overall experience building and scaling distributed systems and online services through the introduction of APIs and frameworks to a large code base. Strong technical communication skills, and demonstrated ability to build and leverage relationships with engineering and technical leaders. Strong coding skills with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages including Go, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, or similar. Strong system design skills, ideally with experience in building online production services. A systematic and thorough approach to problem solving, thinking from first principles with a bias for taking actions and having impact. An interest in mentorship, learning from others, and digging into new challenges. While it’s not required, it’s an added plus if you also have: Experience and lessons learned from transforming a company’s distributed systems from monolithic software development to a federated approach. Experience with Ruby, and even better if it is experience with Rails. 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.
