The Business Operations team is passionate about solving some of Figma's most ambitious business issues. We are a small team that works collaboratively across Engineering, Product, Go-to-Market, and Operations teams on strategic initiatives with a direct and quantifiable impact on our business. You will be asked to tackle a variety of unstructured problems, dissect them, synthesize a set of actionable insights and partner in the execution & implementation of the solution. The role requires someone who is highly analytical and strategic, a great communicator, approaches problems in a structured manner, and becomes comfortable with ambiguity. You’ll get substantial senior leadership exposure, focus on the highest-priority business issues and be plugged into every facet of the business.
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:
- Identify, evaluate and prioritize new product initiatives, go-to-market strategies and operational projects, with an eye toward long term value creation
- Partner with key stakeholders across product, marketing, people, sales, and customer experience to understand, scope and implement operational improvements or perform analysis to advise strategic decision-making
- Complete those recommendations until you’ve achieved the desired outcome
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
- 6+ years of experience in investment banking, management consulting, private equity, corporate planning, business finance, analytics, or related fields
- Demonstrated ability to distill sophisticated issues into structured frameworks and develop concrete action plans
- Strong analytical expertise, and extensive experience building integrated models from scratch
- Experience building relationships and communicating with stakeholders across all levels and functions
- Demonstrated ability to build processes from scratch
- Proven proclivity for quickly identifying and methodically resolving potential road-blocks
While not required, it’s an added plus if you also have:
