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! The Figma Research team is hiring an experienced researcher for our Rapid Research program. We're product builders who bring research expertise to the team, working closely with designers, product managers, and engineers to clarify problems, test ideas, and recommend what to change—often in one- to two-week sprints. You'll rotate across product areas, ramp up quickly, and build relationships as you go, energized by unfamiliar products and ambiguous problems and ready to take initiative rather than wait for a fully scoped brief. You bring strong opinions about what makes a great experience, grounded in the needs of the people using it, spot connections across product areas, and combine deep qualitative and quantitative research expertise with a flexible, resourceful approach to moving quickly without sacrificing rigor. Beyond individual studies, you bring a clear point of view on what to build or change, tailor your communication to your audience, and are willing to challenge assumptions and say the hard thing with care—asking for help when you need it and offering it when others do. 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: • Scope and run focused research in quick sprints, using sound methods to answer the questions most likely to change a product decision • Turn findings into specific recommendations a designer or PM can act on, working through tradeoffs and helping the team put them into practice • Present product recommendations to cross-functional teams and senior leadership, telling the story behind the data, not just reporting insights • Rotate across product areas and teams as needed, building credibility and relationships quickly without being embedded long-term • Contribute beyond research studies by using our products, joining design reviews, and helping teams recognize when they have enough information to act • Bring clarity to ambiguous problems, challenge assumptions, and adjust the scope or approach as you learn • Experiment with tools, templates, and workflows to make research faster and sharper We'd love to hear from you if you have: • 7+ years of experience in research at high-growth product organizations, UX/design agencies, or strategic consultancies focused on digital experiences • Proficiency in mixed methods research, including qualitative approaches such as interviews and quantitative approaches such as surveys and data analysis • Strong product judgment, with examples of specific recommendations you made and how they shaped the product, backed by strong communication and storytelling skills with a track record of securing executive buy-in • Experience ramping up quickly on new projects and delivering clear recommendations in one- to two-week research sprints, turning ambiguous problems into clear questions and a practical path forward • A scrappy, flexible approach, adapting to changing priorities and tight timelines while maintaining sound research methods, including active use of AI tools to improve speed, quality, or scale While it's not required, it's an added plus if you also have: • Proficiency in designing and prototyping, ideally within the Figma suite of tools • Familiarity with rese
