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 with us!

We’re looking for a Brand Copywriter who excels in helping cross-functional teams find creative and compelling ways to connect with our intended audiences. Our ideal candidate is as excited about bringing Figma’s brand voice to life as they are about grammatical precision. You’ll be developing and socializing our writing guides, establishing processes, partnering with and learning from other writing teams at Figma, and bringing best-in-class storytelling to life alongside collaborators on Brand Studio and Marketing teams.

This is a full time role that can be held from one of our US hubs or remotely in the United States.

What you'll do at Figma:

  • Work cross-functionally with Brand Studio, Product Marketing, Growth, and Research peers to co-shape and execute on compelling product launches, campaigns, and Marketing initiatives
  • Partner and foster relationships with visual designers, motion designers, and strategists to up-level our holistic brand storytelling
  • Creating original and strategic solutions—from conceptual development all the way to execution
  • Proactively gain knowledge of Figma’s products, processes, audiences, key business objectives, and competitive landscape and connect that knowledge to your day-to-day craft
  • Establish and share processes and ways of working with cross-functional peers, seeking feedback and iterating often

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

  • 4+ years of experience working as a copywriter for brand and marketing
  • A portfolio of writing samples and examples of your work
  • Demonstrated excellence in both receiving and giving feedback
  • Demonstrated history working with ambiguous problems and a knack for paving a path forward
  • Experience successfully collaborating cross-functionally
  • The ability to work independently to explore concepts from beginning to end, while seeking healthy feedback loops with your ideas

While it’s not required, it’s an added plus:

  • Design knowledge
  • Experience with Figma
  • Experience in SaaS environments

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.
