Designer Advocate - Figma Weave (New York, United States)
$153k - $317k USD
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 building the next chapter of AI-native craft and creativity - where craft and technology meet. Our unified platform bridges the gap between AI capabilities and human creativity, and lets professional creatives and designers harness the power of the world’s leading AI models without losing precision, expression, or soul. Together, we’re building tools that help people move faster without sacrificing quality, precision, or craft — a platform where AI supports creativity instead of flattening it.
Our Designer Advocates are at the core of our mission - online, in written and video content, and in live interactions with our users. This Designer Advocate will be a Workflow Builder — someone who helps creative teams design and scale their own systems. You’ll work at the intersection of art and technology, showing how AI and human creativity can flow together inside Figma Weave. It’s a mix of teaching, building, and inspiring, helping professionals turn their creative process into powerful, repeatable workflows. You will be a key partner to support our sales and marketing team in helping add design credibility and product knowledge to our messaging and conversations with users and new teams looking to adopt Figma Weave.
